Another banner class for John Calipari and Kentucky appears to be coming together.
The Wildcats gained a commitment from five-star guard Justin Edwards on Monday, adding their third blue-chip commitment for the 2023 class. The 6’7” wing is ranked as the No. 3 overall prospect in his class, per 247Sports‘ composite ranking.
Edwards joins point guard Robert Dillingham and wing Reed Sheppard as Kentucky commits. The Philadelphia product opted for the Wildcats over his other finalist, SEC rival Tennessee.
“It really just came down to me following my dreams and I have always seen myself playing for Kentucky, that was a childhood dream of mine,” Edwards said, per 247‘s Travis Branham.
