Syracuse basketball has reached out regarding 2023 prospect Justin Edwards, according to media reports, and the stellar forward is one of the hottest names nationally in this cycle.

In mid-June, college coaches were able to begin making direct contact with players in the 2023 cycle, and the 6-foot-7 Edwards has received a ton of scholarship offers and interest.

Once the contact period began, the Orange coaching staff inquired about Edwards, according to an article from 247Sports national analyst Travis Branham. But the competition for this four-star player is immense and will only continue to grow.
