MSU Basketball in touch with Canadian 4-star big man Enoch Boakye

Michigan State has reportedly reached out to 4-star center Enoch Boakye out of Ontario.

Michigan State Basketball is currently still in the process of trying to recruit 5-star Canadian Karim Mane, and it looks like there is another player from Canada in their cross-hairs for 2022. It was revealed by @EditsRecruiting on Twitter that the Spartans have reached out to 2022 4-star center Enoch Boakye out of Mississauga, Ontario.

Boakye is the No. 3 ranked center in the 2022 recruiting class and the top player in Ontario in his class. He is listed as the No. 21 ranked player in his class overall by 247Sports. Boakye currently plays for George Harris Prep.

Michigan State will face a lot of competition for Boakye’s services if he chooses the Spartans, as it was reported that he is also in touch with South Carolina, Gonzaga, Arizona, Marquette, and then Kentucky is also expected to go after Boakye as well.
