John Wall told his Kentucky buddy De’Aaron Fox that UCLA’s Lonzo Ball will have a target on his back once he enters the NBA.
“John said you have a few players [who] have actually said it,” Fox said Monday morning on SportsCenter.
He added: “Lonzo is a quiet kid, I’ve known him for years. I didn’t know his dad [LaVar Ball] until our senior year of high school but he does things his own way, let’s put it that way.”
This week will be a huge one on the recruiting front for St. John’s coach Chris Mullin and his staff as they look to rebuild the program going forward.
Although the St. John’s Elite Camp was postponed due to facilities issues, Mullin and company will host a slew of big-time recruits beginning Wednesday.
Bryan Antoine and Scottie Lewis, the Class of 2019 stars from the Ranney (N.J.) School and the Team Rio AAU program, will visit campus Wednesday alongside many of their Rio teammates. That group includes Jalen Gaffney, Alex Klatsky, Josh Alexander, Ahmadu Samor, Jake Glezen, Noah Farrakhan, Clarence Nadolny, Dwight Davis, Trey Patterson and Cartier Bowman.
