Syracuse basketball 2026 4-star, 5-star targets are high up in new 247Sports rankings

Date:

Syracuse basketball four-star and five-star targets are highly placed in updated 2026 national rankings from recruiting service and media outlet 247Sports that came out not too long ago and included 150 prospects.

To date, the Orange staff doesn’t yet have a verbal commitment in its 2026 cycle, although very few of the top players in this class have decided on a future collegiate home at this juncture.

That being said, ‘Cuse coaches have doled out scholarship offers to a variety of talented juniors in high school, while showing interest in other 2026 prospects. This includes some juniors who, in late August of this year, participated in the Orange’s annual Elite Camp.

College coaches could begin initiating direct communication with 2026 prospects this past June 15, so many juniors in high school still likely have a way to go in their respective recruiting processes. I’ll be curious to see what other 2026 players receive offers from the ‘Cuse in the future.
