One of the biggest rising prospects in the 2021 NCAA Basketball Recruiting class has been Kendall Brown, who spent this past season of high school at nationally recognized Sunrise Christian Prep Academy. He moved from the state of Minnesota for the purpose of higher-level competition and more exposure, which worked out well for the forward.

Brown’s rankings have risen up to a consensus top-25 status and listed as a five-star prospect, according to 247sportsComposite. He’s an impressive and smart athlete who can play both combo forward positions, listed currently at 6’7 and 205 pounds overall.
