Five-Star Plus+ SG Meleek Thomas looking to take visits to Alabama, Auburn, Kentucky, & Michigan

Meleek Thomas, one of the top shooting guard prospects in the 2025 class, is looking to move forward in his recruitment.

The 6-foot-3, 175-pound junior out of Lincoln Park (PA) tells On3 he’s looking to schedule visits to Alabama, Auburn, Kentucky, and Michigan. Dates have not been finalized but the Five-Star Plus+ recruit plans to see those four schools within the next few months.

Thomas, ranked 6th nationally in the 2025 On3 Industry Rankings, announced his top 12 schools in September. Auburn, Kentucky, and Michigan were included on that list, however, Alabama was not. It appears that Thomas will now consider the Tide moving forward. Also included on his top 12 group was Kansas State, Indiana, Kansas, Duke, Tennessee, UConn, Pitt, Miami, and Villanova.

Michigan and Auburn were both scheduled to host Thomas for official visits in the month of September, but both trips were cancelled and he now looks to reschedule. He’s previously taken unofficial visits to Penn State, Pitt, Villanova, and Indiana.

I spoke to Thomas, a Pittsburgh native, in June where he broke down his offers from UConn, Kentucky, Michigan, and Duke. You can read that conversation here (On3+).

“I’m already a three-level scorer, but I’m seeing my teammates better when they’re cutting for the ball,” Thomas previously told On3. “I’m getting to my spots better and scoring easier now. Playing 17u only makes me better. These guys are all going to college next year, so playing up against them improves my game. I take a lot of pieces from a lot of guys in the league. Like Steph Curry for his off-ball movement, LeBron (James) with how dominant he is, and Chris Paul for his point guard skills.”

Thomas Scouting Report

“Meleek Thomas is a bucket-getter who is wired to score. He is electric when it comes to shooting the ball with range that extends well beyond the three-point arc and the confidence that extends to any level. He has good length with some quick-twitch pop to his game. Thomas is able to carve out space off the bounce. His dribble can get him open, and he has the ability to contort his body to get his shoulders squared upon release. He will need to continue adding weight to his frame. Scoring comes so easily to him, he can get shot happy. Thomas is a good on-ball defender and has natural instincts in the passing lanes. he is tracking as one of the top guards, nationally, in his class.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
