Top-50 combo guard Aden Holloway sets commitment date

Class of 2023 four-star prospect Aden Holloway will announce his college decision on Monday, August 1st at 8:00 PM ET, he told On3.

The 6-foot-1 combo guard recently transferred from La Lumiere (Ind.) to Prolific Prep (Calif.) for his senior year. Holloway, who is originally from Charlotte, is choosing between Auburn and Tennessee. He also received offers from Miami, Wake Forest, Michigan, Notre Dame, and others.

Holloway is the No. 39 overall prospect in the 2023 class, according to the On3 Consensus. 

Holloway talks finalists

In a recent interview with AuburnLive’s Jeffrey Lee, Holloway broke down his top two schools.

Auburn: “With Auburn, there’s nothing to not like about Auburn. Auburn is a great place to be as a person. Yes, it’s a big basketball school, but it’s also a great place to live your life. You have to have stability around you that’s not basketball, and I feel like it’s a great place for that. It’s a great family atmosphere and I can get better. Plus the staff is amazing.”

Tennessee: “With Tennessee, Rick Barnes is a great coach. I love the players that they have there now. They have done a great job of recruiting me. It’s very similar to Auburn. It has a great environment, too.”

Scouting Summary

Aden Holloway is a fearless point guard. He is very crafty with the ball, able to get to his spots off the bounce and he can create space to get his shot off. While Holloway does not have optimal measurables and is an average athlete, his skill and his confidence help him produce. The size will be questioned, and any coach who takes him will have to be ok with a smaller guard. He has a tendency to over-dribble and can be questioned on the defensive end. He has been consistently very good for La Porte (IN) LaLumiere School this season, against the highest level competition. – On3’s Jamie Shaw, National Recruiting Analyst
