Just a few weeks ago, UNC basketball and Hubert Davis pulled in their first commitment of the Class of 2025 when Gonzaga Prep’s Derek Dixon decided Chapel Hill was where he wanted to play college basketball.
Now, Davis and his scouting staff turn their efforts to the next commit to announce his decision on five-star shooting guard Braylon Mullins.
The 6-foot-5 guard from Greenfield, Indiana, has a .9909 247sports Composite ranking and is also considering Indiana, his home state, and Dan Hurley and UConn, which are his final three teams that will be nailbiting on October 23rd.
Mullins had this to say about the final days before his commitment.
I’ve been writing things down, probably 10 minutes a day, just trying to figure it all out for myself and what best fits me. All three are good schools. I still don’t know if I want to go far yet, or not. It’s also going to be a challenge to take a bet (on) yourself and go far. IU is only an hour away so it’s a different standpoint for all three schools. So, I don’t know what to do yet and need to talk to my parents about that.
Mullins’ friend and former teammate Trent Sisley, a four-star recruit from Montverde Academy, recently committed to his hometown of Indiana and the Hoosiers while simultaneously attempting to recruit Mullins to his hometown as well.
Will Mullins stay home with Indiana or hit the road with two potential college basketball powerhouses on the final three list?
Find out on October 23, 2024.
