Top 10 Kentucky boys basketball players in the Class of 2024
3. Ayden Evans, C, Elizabethtown
Evans is the most talented big man in Kentucky as evidenced by his stellar junior year. He averaged 16.1 points and 9.6 rebounds while shooting 61% from the field and 45.5% from 3-point territory for a 24-10 Panthers squad that advanced to the Elite Eight. For his efforts, Evans was named first-team all-state by the Courier Journal.
The 6-foot-8 center is considered to be the best in the Commonwealth, ranking as high as the No. 2 prospect in the state by ESPN. Evans held D-I eight offers from the likes of Mississippi State, Missouri, Seton Hall, Texas A&M and West Virginia, but he instead committed to Ohio on Nov. 16.
