UNC commit Elliot Cadeau sets another GEICO Nationals record

UNC basketball commit Elliot Cadeau set another GEICO Nationals record during Link Academy’s National Championship win on Sunday.

UNC basketball commit [autotag]Elliot Cadeau[/autotag] had a phenomenal week at GEICO Nationals last week, which included a trophy and some individual records.

Cadeau and Link Academy (MO) took down AZ Compass Prep, 73-55, to win the National Championship. Link finished the season 27-1 overall.

Cadeau struggled with foul trouble and sat the majority of the fourth quarter but finished with 11 points, three rebounds, five assists and zero turnovers.

His five assists gave him 29 for the tournament, setting a GEICO Nationals record for assists. Earlier this week, Cadeau set the tournament single-game record with 14 assists over Paul VI.

Right now, the five-star point guard is in the class of 2024 — but the option remains open to move to the 2023 recruiting class.

He addressed that possibility with a simple; “As of now, 2024 I’ll see you guys in Chapel Hill.”

North Carolina currently has two commits in the 2023 class while Cadeau is part of a four-man class in 2024. The Tar Heels have the top class in the country in 2024.

If he did join 2023, he would be part of a three-man high school class that includes four-stars Simeon Wilcher and Zayden High. The Tar Heels also received a transfer commitment from Brown wing Paxson Wojcik. 

Cadeau is ranked No. 11 overall player in the 247Sports rankings. He is listed as the No. 2 point guard.
