Kentucky basketball’s recruiting efforts for 2025 are centered on five-star forward Caleb Wilson, a top-10 national prospect. Wilson, known for his athleticism and defensive potential, has Kentucky among his leading choices. The Wildcats, under coach Mark Pope, are pitching him on joining a class already featuring five-star commits Malachi Moreno and Jasper Johnson, as well as four-star point guard Acaden Lewis. This group has elevated Kentucky to the No. 2 recruiting class nationally for 2025.
Wilson’s versatility makes him a coveted prospect. While his offensive game is still evolving, he excels as a finisher and a secondary playmaker. His addition would round out Kentucky’s roster with a strong defensive presence alongside Moreno, forming a formidable frontcourt.
Wilson plans to announce his commitment by December, with Kentucky and one other school leading the race. His potential decision is highly anticipated as it could solidify the Wildcats’ status as a recruiting powerhouse.
