Hogs basketball recruit Boateng likely to narrow list soon

The Little Rock Central wing is the best player in the state. He’s already visited Fayetteville and now he’s off elsewhere.

The good news for Arkansas fans is that Annor Boateng visited Fayetteville first.

The bad news is he’s now traveling elsewhere.

Boateng, a 6-foot-5, four-star wing from Little Rock Central, is set to visit Missouri, LSU, Virginia and Indiana over the course of September, according to a report from WholeHogSports’ Richard Davenport. Those four schools, plus Arkansas, Georgia Tech, Auburn and Virginia Tech, made the cut as his finalists back in July.

Over at On3, Boateng is listed as a five-star player the No. 9 recruit in the whole country in the Class of 2024. And while his ranking isn’t that high at 247Sports, no publication has him outside the realm of potential superstar.

Boateng is the reigning Arkansas Gatorade Player of the Year for the Tigers after averaging 16 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 assists in 2022-23 at Central.
