Kentucky will host the top available prospect in the class of 2022 this weekend in five-star wing Leonard Miller.

The No. 11 prospect in the latest On3 Player Rankings will take an official visit to Lexington this weekend, he tells Rivals’ Travis Graf. The visit comes after meeting with the G League Ignite today.

The Ontario native exploded onto the scene as a senior, averaging 32 points per game at Fort Erie International Academy to lead the Grind Session and Canada in scoring. The lefty wing was then invited to the Nike Hoop Summit last weekend, finishing with 11 points on 4-9 shooting and 2-4 from three to go with five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 18 minutes for Team World.

Miller measured in at 6-11, 208 pounds at the event with a 7-2 wingspan.

The five-star wing previously cut his list down to ten options, with Kentucky, Gonzaga, Kansas, Oklahoma State, TCU, Alabama, Providence, Auburn, Overtime Elite, and the G-League Ignite making the cut.

Kentucky has emerged as a serious option among colleges, though the pro route is seen as the preference. He could also enter the NBA Draft this summer.

“The pro route is a big option for me; it is very visible right now,” Miller told On3. “I just have to keep working for that to happen. There are a lot of people telling me the NBA Draft or the G-League could be possible. Eventually, I want to get drafted, so if that comes about this year, I will want to test that. If the G-League reaches out to me and wants me to come in and be with them, that will be something that we take very seriously.”

Could Kentucky get a last-second signature from the top available prospect in the class of 2022?
