Recruiting Trail: Anthony Edwards - Holy Spirit Prep Guard

January 18, 2019
Anthony Edwards reclassified to 2019 and entered the conversation as the nation's top prospect from Holy Spirit Prep in Atlanta.

Some scouts call Anthony Edwards the best player in the 2019 class. At 6-foot-5, the Holy Spirit Prep guard has the size to finish through contact and the shooting touch to punish defenders who give him space.

Edwards reclassified to graduate early, accelerating his path to college basketball. His final five includes Florida State, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, and North Carolina. Whichever program lands him gets a player whose physical tools and competitive drive could translate immediately at the next level.
