Talking Kentucky, recruitment and more with Justin Edwards

Justin Edwards entered the player recruiting rankings as a top-50 prospect in 2020, but he’s steadily worked his way into the top five in the most recent rankings and has the tools to make it to No. 1.

This past weekend, I was able to watch Edwards for the first time in person, and I understand why.

Outside of a 26-point performance on Saturday afternoon, Edward’s averages for the weekend do not jump off the page - 13.8 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 1.8 assists on 44% shooting from the field and 29.4% from three.

Yet, when you watch him he can literally jump off the page as an uber-athlete, and in every game, he was the biggest impact player on the floor.
