Syracuse Basketball: 4-star big-man target scores big AAU double-doubles

On Sunday during AAU contests in Tennessee, Syracuse basketball recruit Patrick Ngongba II was an absolute double-double machine, catching the attention of many national analysts and scouts for his performances.

The 6-foot-10 Ngongba from the Washington, D.C., area, a four-star, top-10 center as well as a top-70 national prospect in the 2024 class, received a scholarship offer from the Orange in late April.

He is scheduled to officially visit 2023 national champion UConn in mid-June, according to media reports, and Ngongba has said that he would like to visit the Hill at some point in the future, too.
