    Keion Brooks, the 6-foot-8 wing out of La Lumiere (IN) and the Indy Heat, said this weekend he could decide “within the next month or so.”

    “It’s kind of open but if I had to I’d probably say within the next month or so,” he told Inside the Hall.

    Brooks is down to a final six of UCLA, Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, Michigan State and Purdue.

    Kentucky coach John Calipari, Michigan State’s Tom Izzo and Indiana’s Archie Miller all watched Brooks and his La Lumiere (IN) team at the Forum Tipoff Classic in Indiana on Saturday.

    Brooks, who averaged 21.5 points and 7.0 rebounds this summer on the Nike EYBL circuit, visited UCLA in late August with teammate Trayce Jackson-Davis, who recently committed to Indiana.

    Brooks said he talks to Jackson-Davis “every day.”

    Brooks also talks regularly with teammate Isaiah Stewart, who is also uncommitted.

    Calipari, who is in the market for bigs, also watched Stewart, who is considering Kentucky, Duke, Michigan State, Syracuse and Washington. Calipari then came back to the New York area Sunday night to see Jaden McDaniels.
