Miami Basketball Recruiting: 4-star SG VJ Edgecombe names top 10
Long Island Lutheran (New York) shooting guard VJ Edgecombe is one of the top names on Miami’s 2024 recruiting board, and Jim Larranaga’s staff secured the Hurricanes a spot in his top 10 on Sunday.
Edgecombe, a native of Nassau, tweeted that he’d be deciding among Miami, Alabama, Baylor, Connecticut, Duke, Florida, Florida State, Michigan, Saint John’s and the NBA G-League Ignite team, which was created for top NBA draft prospects to compete outside the traditional NBA G-League format.
Looking at Edgecombe’s summer highlights, it’s clear that he’s often the best player on the court. Attacking the rim isn’t a problem, especially when he gets a good screen from a teammate.
He explodes off the ground after taking his second step and can put others on a poster at 6-foot-5 inches tall. His three-point shot looks more comfortable from the right side of the break.
Edgecombe is a four-star recruit everywhere but ESPN, where he is a five-star prospect ranked No. 7 overall in the class of 2024. The On3 industry ranking, which uses a weighted average of all four major services, places him at No. 17 overall on the national ranking and No. 4 among shooting guards in his class. He’s also ranked the third-best player from New York.
