Kentucky basketball has offered class of 2025 forward Niko Bundalo

Mark Pope has offered a scholarship to 2025 power forward Niko Bundalo.

Kentucky basketball coach Mark Pope made one of his first official scholarship offers on Monday, by offering center Chris Cenac. He quickly followed that up with another one, this time to 2025 power forward Niko Bundalo.

Bundalo is a 6’11”, 195 lb forward out of Ohio. He’s the number 30 overall player in the 2025 class according to 247sports and is rated four stars. They also have him as the 7th best power forward in the class.

Like Cenac, Pope and his staff watched Bundalo at the NBPA Top 100 Camp in Orlando, and were impressed enough to make the offer to him. He announced the offer on the social platform X on Monday evening.

The Texas Longhorns and Alabama Crimson Tide are two of Kentucky’s SEC rivals who are also interested in Bundalo. Non-SEC teams like Louisville, Michigan State, and Purdue have also extended offers to him.

As with all of the 2025 prospects, fans will likely have to wait a bit before a decision is made. However, Pope is targeting some of the top players, and hopefully will land some of them.

Alabama MBB offers 2025 PF Niko Bundalo

The Alabama men’s basketball coaching staff has started to evaluate prospects from the 2025 recruiting class. On Friday, Alabama extended an offer to 2025 power forward Niko Bundalo.

Bundalo is listed at 6-foot-9 and 210 pounds. He plays for Western Reserve Academy in Hudson, Ohio.

In all likelihood, the Tide sees Bundalo as an athlete that can play multiple positions. Bundalo’s size and length give him the option to play small forward, power forward, or center.

One thing that Alabama head coach Nate Oats loves to have is positionless basketball players. Bundalo fits that profile to a tee.
