Auburn is busy identifying and assessing portal targets.
Mutual interest has turned into proposed visits for two players:
ERIK STEVENSON, wing from South Carolina (6-foot-4)
BRANDON MURRAY, wing from LSU (6-foot-5)
Barring a commitment, both of these guys are likely to visit during the A-Day weekend.
Mutual interest has turned into proposed visits for two players:
ERIK STEVENSON, wing from South Carolina (6-foot-4)
- Can play 2 or 3
- Improved his 3FG% to 34% last season
- Best FT% in the SEC
- Good offensive rebounder for his size
- Synergy Sports rates him as a "Very Good" spot-up shooter
- Has played at Wichita State and Washington
- Will be a fifth-year (super) senior in 2022-23
- Sounds like it's down to AU and West Virginia
- Rivals had him as a 3-star in the 2018 class
BRANDON MURRAY, wing from LSU (6-foot-5)
- Probably limited to 3; not a great ball-handler or rebounder
- 34% from 3FG last season
- Synergy Sports rates him "Excellent" as a P&R Ball Handler guy, albeit with a small sample size
- Synergy Sports rates him "Good" in spot-up shooting and transition
- From Baltimore, Md.
- Put up replacement-level stats in 2021-22, but started 33 of 34 games as a freshman
- Rivals had him as a 4-star guy (#73 overall) in the 2021 class
Barring a commitment, both of these guys are likely to visit during the A-Day weekend.
