KJ Evans compares UK visit to Oregon, talks NIL and more about recruitment

Despite being criticized for his inconsistency and struggles against physicality, Kwame Evans Jr. has one of the highest ceilings in the class of 2023.

One of the biggest reasons for that is Evans’ 6-foot-10, 200-pound frame, making him such a physically gifted and raw prospect. Combine that with the perimeter skills of a guard/wing, and you can see why Evans is so highly touted.

The good and the bad of Evans could be seen at Nike EYBL’s Louisville session. In his worst performance of the weekend, Evans scored all 4 of his points from the free-throw line and added just 1 rebound in 21 minutes.
