Syracuse basketball, according to various media reports and recruiting services, has shown interest in 2024 five-star power forward Derik Queen, an elite prospect in this class who hails from Baltimore.
The 6-foot-8 Queen, per national analysts and recruiting insiders, will significantly contend for the No. 1 overall ranking in the 2024 cycle. In fact, he had held that position in ESPN’s rankings of the top-25 players nationwide in this class for a sizable period of time.
However, ESPN recently updated its national rankings for the 2024 cycle, and Queen is no longer No.
