LaGerald Vick, who committed to Kansas, is expected to decide this week whether to remain in the Class of 2016 or reclassify to the Class of 2015, according to a report from SportsNet NY’s Adam Zagoria.
The 6-foot-5 shooting guard from Memphis Douglass would join the Class of 2015’s No. 1 and No 2. power forwards Cheick Diallo and Carlton Bragg, respectively, with the Jayhawks.
“A final decision could be made mid- or late this week,” his AAU coach Norton Hurd told SNY.tv.
Vick has played well lately, scoring 25, 28, 30 and 24 points while leading Team Thad to a 3-1 weekend at the Under Armour Association’s most recent stop in Ardsley, N.Y.
“He’s just a natural born scorer,” Thaddeus Young told Evan Daniels of Scout.com. “He has the ability to control offenses a little bit. He’s patient and knows how to go get you a bucket and set other guys up. He’s always been a good scorer, it’s been a matter of getting him out on the circuit and letting everybody see it.”
“He’s come into his own as a player and does a great job. He’s been working and he wants to learn and he’s hungry.”
