Austin Rivers: ‘I Will Visit Kansas’

By Adam Zagoria on September 02, 2010, 9:43AM

There is hope, Kansas fans.

Hope that you still could land Austin Rivers, the No. 1 prospect in the Class of 2011.

“I’ll be visiting Kansas,” the 6-foot-3 Rivers said by text.

Rivers hasn’t set up a date to visit KU yet, but he is set to visit North Carolina the weekend of Oct. 1 and Duke the weekend of Oct. 15.

As for a potential visit to Florida, the school from which he decommitted, Rivers is uncertain.

“Florida is a maybe,” he said.

Rivers, the son of Boston Celtics coach Doc Rivers, did sprain his right wrist last weekend in the Boost Mobile Elite 24 game in Venice Beach, Calif., but he says he’s OK.

“Just a light sprain,” he said. “I’ll be back working out by Friday. So no big deal.”

If you haven’t yet seen the above video of Rivers crossing over John Wall, the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft, go ahead and hit play.

“Great kid, great talent,” Milwaukee Bucks guard Brandon Jennings told Marc J. Spears of Yahoo! Sports. “He will play in the NBA some day. The sky is the limit if he keeps working hard.”
