    After signing a National Letter of Intent in November, Keon Edwards will be joining the program for the 2020-21 season after enrolling at DePaul for Winter Quarter. Edwards is a 6-7 forward that played last season at Hillcrest Prep in Phoenix.

    “Keon’s interest and dedication in completing all of the necessary steps to enroll for Winter Quarter is a testament what myself and our staff saw while recruiting him,” said head coach Dave Leitao. “His dedication to playing at the highest levels of our sport is evident on and off the court. We look forward to getting him on campus and acclimated to our program as we continue to get our team prepared on a daily basis for what is already an unpredictable season.”

    When he signed in November, Edwards was a consensus top 100 recruit and four-star prospect. The Pasadena, Texas native was ranked No. 41 by ESPN, No. 75 by 247Sports and No. 80 by Rivals. He was slotted as the eighth-best small forward by ESPN, ranked No. 20 at the position by Rivals and No. 21 by 247Sports.

    Edwards averaged 14.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 2.4 steals and 1.9 blocks in 18 games last season at Hillcrest Prep. He’s also participated in the USA Basketball program that included the 2019 USA Basketball Men’s Junior National Team October minicamp and the 2019 USA Basketball Men’s Junior National Team July minicamp.
