Wisconsin Basketball: Badgers miss on top target Zeke Nnaji

The Wisconsin basketball staff has had a rough go of it on the recruiting trail over the last couple of months with the latest blow coming yesterday from the Badgers’ top remaining target in the 2019 class.

Four-star power forward Zeke Nnaji released his Top 5 list last night on Twitter, and Wisconsin is out for the nation’s No. 34 overall prospect.

The five programs left in contention are Arizona, Baylor, Kansas, Purdue, and UCLA. A somewhat surprising omission from that list is Kentucky, who offered Nnaji recently and was instantly seen as a favorite to land him in the eyes of many.
