Justin Edwards, Kentucky targets invited to USA minicamp

USA Junior National Team minicamp is back for the first time in three years — and it will feature some familiar faces.

Among the 62 athletes participating at the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Training Center in Colorado Springs from Oct. 7-10 are multiple top Kentucky basketball recruiting targets, including one pledge in five-star wing Justin Edwards.

Prospects in the classes of 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026 will all be in attendance, participating in drills, practices and scrimmages, among other instructional opportunities. Junior National Team members and their parents will participate in a series of educational programs presented by USA Basketball, NCAA and NBA Player Development Program focused on NCAA eligibility, mental health issues and life skills development.
