Virginia back in for 4-star Silas Demary; Indiana takes a look

Virginia was back at Lincolnton (NC) Combine Academy today to watch four-star Silas Demary, Jr. Indiana was also by for the first time during the Fall live evaluation period with an assistant in to see the point guard.

Demary, Jr. is the No. 61 player in On3’s 2023 class rankings. It makes sense coaches would be doubling back to see Demary; he is a top-five available point guard in the country and is still open in his recruitment. This summer, Demary was first-team All-NBPA Top 100 camp. He then averaged 12.8 points, 4.8 assists, and 1.5 steals. He shot 61.8 percent from the field, leading his Team Curry program to a 15-6 record on the UAA Next Circuit.

Demary took three early official visits to Tennessee, VCU, and St. John’s. He has taken two senior year official visits to Southern California and NC State and has three potential visits remaining.
