Makur Maker, a top 5 college basketball recruit, has Howard on his radar

A top 5 college basketball recruit has the realistic option of going overseas, playing in the G League or suiting up at an HBCU.

Makur Maker, a 6-11 forward, who ranks No. 6 in the 247 Sports Composite Rankings and 4th overall in the Top 247 class of 2020, has drawn interest from Power 5 blue bloods like Kentucky, UCLA and Oregon.

And Howard, too, according to 247 Sports.

Maker, the cousin of current NBA player Thon Maker, is scheduled to make visits to UCLA and Howard, the website said.

Just judging by the highlights, it’s easy to see why Maker is a highly sought after prospect by professional leagues and top college programs.
