Cason Wallace an early standout at McDonald's All-American event

Sunday marked the opening session at the McDonald’s All-American event, but it didn’t take any time at all for a future Wildcat to separate himself from the pack.

Cason Wallace, a 6-foot-3 class of 2022 five-star prospect, has been drawing some early rave reviews from the scouts up in Chicago. The incoming Kentucky combo guard showcased his skills in front of 50-plus NBA scouts and personnel, shining in three-on-three drills and by bringing his high-intensity defense. Wallace is considered the No. 5 player in his class, according to the On3 Consensus.

Sunday saw the 2022 McDonald’s All-Americans participate in practice sessions and scrimmages with the nationally televised events scheduled to happen in the following days.
