Kentucky recruiting targets thrive at NBPA Top 100 Camp

And just like that, the busiest recruiting month of the year has come to a close, as the NBPA Top 100 Camp in Orlando, FL wrapped up its annual event on Friday, July 30.

Despite missing two headlining talents – Shaedon Sharpe and Nick Smith Jr. both pulled out late – several of Kentucky’s recruiting targets participated in the prestigious event, namely five-star guards Keyonte George, Cason Wallace and Jaden Bradley, along with five-star centers Adem Bona and Baye Fall (2023).
