Four-Star Basketball Prospect Announces Future Visit To Syracuse

The Syracuse men’s basketball season will not tip off until early November, but head coach Gerry McNamara and his staff are already planning for the future. Those futures plans include the recruiting process of players in both the Class of 2027 and 2028. This week, a four-star prospect took to social media to announce he has scheduled a visit to Syracuse in the near future. 

The Orange are coming off a 15-17 campaign and haven’t been to the NCAA Tournament since 2021.

Kamissoko is ranked as the No. 8 overall player in the Class of 2027 according to Rivals. He’s No. 17 according to 247 Sports.
