This time last year, Justin Edwards was not nearly as well-known a prospect as he is now. The summer of 2021 saw a boom in his recruitment, eventually leading to an offer from the Kentucky Wildcats this past fall. Now an established five-star, the 6-foot-7, 180-pound high school junior continues to look the part of a future star.
Edwards was the engine that powered Imhotep Charter (Philadelphia, PA) to a PIAA Class 5A state championship title in late March. He finished with a game-high 20 points for Imhotep and an average of roughly 18 points per game across the season.
