Wisconsin basketball recruiting: UW adds walk-on SG Ross Candelino to 2022 class

Not that preferred walk-on commitments are ever expected, but when 2022 SG Ross Candelino (Ponte Vedra, Fla.) announced on Twitter that he had accepted an offer to attend Wisconsin it really came out of the blue. The Badgers now have two walk-ons coming in with the ‘22 class as Candelino joins Hartland standout Luke Haertle.

Candelino had an offer from American University, according to his Twitter account, but chose the opportunity to walk-on in Madison instead.

All glory goes to God! Blessed and excited to announce that I will be continuing my academic and athletic career at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
