Syracuse basketball 2023 target Matas Buzelis is the latest prospect to have received a scholarship offer from the Orange coaching staff, and then have his national rankings skyrocket.
I’m in no way saying these two developments are related, but credit the ‘Cuse coaches for identifying talented high-school prospects early on in their recruiting processes. This has occurred more than once of late, for 2023 players and prospects in other recruiting cycles as well.
In the case of the 6-foot-10 Buzelis, who can suit up at both guard positions and on the wing, he has jumped into the top-10 overall across the country within his class, according to one of the primary recruiting services.
