The expectations are now extremely high for Baltimore native KJ Evans. Many say he will be the next best star out of Baltimore since Carmelo Anthony and that’s an extreme amount of expectations lofting on the shoulders of Evans. The 6-foot-10 prototypical wing attends Montverde Academy, a program that has continuously been atop the high school ranks virtually every year.

[...]

Which schools are heavily involved in your recruitment?

“Kentucky, Memphis, Indiana, Texas, Oregon, Duke, Syracuse, USC, and Auburn.”

How about a program like Auburn? Has Jabari Smith’s impressive year stood out in recruitment?

“I like Auburn a lot, they talk to me on a consistent basis, and yes, because I can be like that if I keep working and that’s how they want me to be if I go there.”

Anywhere you’re definitely going to visit?

“Indiana, Oregon, and Texas.”

(Has a visit to IU in Feb.)
