Kel’el Ware, one of the top recuits in the country and an Oregon Duck commit, was just named to one of the most prestigious high school all-star games in the nation.

The 2022 Nike Hoop Summit Team, selected by the USA Basketball Men’s Developmental National Team Committee, was announced Monday and Ware was on the roster.

Largely considered the most competitive high school all-star game in the country, the 10 prospects on the USA’s roster will face off against 10 international players selected to the 2022 World Select Team. Duck fans will have an early opportunity to see Ware in action, as the game will be held at the Moda Center in Portland on Friday, April 8 at 7:00 p.m. PT.

Ware, who stands at 7-feet and weighs 221 pounds, is averaging 21.2 points, 12.0 rebounds and 5.7 blocks this season for the North Little Rock (Arkansas) Charging Wildcats. The defending 6A state champions are on a 14-game win streak in search of a second-straight state championship. THe future Duck made headlines earlier this season when he recorded an 18-block triple-double.

The consensus 5-star recruit sits at eighth overall in the 247Sports 2022 recruiting class and No. 16 in the ESPN top 100.
