Marquette freshman Brendan Bailey has quite a history with five-star point guard recruit Nico Mannion.
“I’ve known Brendan since I was probably six years old, five years old,” Mannion said. “They had a little hoop on the set for me and Brendan to be playing for like two, three, four hours a night together.”
Now Bailey and Marquette are trying to get Mannion, one of the top point guards in this year’s high school senior class, to commit to Marquette.
247Sports ranks Mannion 15th in his class and first among point guards in the site’s composite rankings.
