When it comes to Kentucky basketball recruiting, much of the discussion lately has been around who will make up the Cats’ backcourt in the 2021 class.
For a while, it looked like Skyy Clark and Jaden Hardy could ultimately be part of the class. However, Hardy is trending elsewhere, likely due to his strong interest in the G-League, while North Carolina is gaining steam with Clark, who is still in the 2022 class but may eventually reclassify.
Part of why Clark is trending away is Kentucky’s pursuit of Hunter Sallis, one of the best overall recruits in 2021.
