Makur Maker announces final 4 and sets decision date

Makur Maker is ready to make his college decision.

On Thursday, the five-star center announced he would make his college pick next week. His finalists include the Kentucky Wildcats, UCLA Bruins, Memphis Tigers and Howard Bison.

A consensus five-star prospect, Maker is ranked 17th nationally and the fourth-best center by 247 Sports Composite. The 6-11, 235-pound center spent this past season at Hillcrest Prep in Arizona.

Earlier this offseason, Jon Rothstein reported that Kentucky and UCLA were the co-favorites for Maker ‘if’ he attends college, though going pro is also an option since he’s eligible for the 2020 NBA Draft.
