De’Aaron Fox, the No. 1 point guard in the Class of 2016, has cancelled his scheduled visit next month to Arizona and is now down to four schools, Cypress Lakes (TX) coach Emmanuel Olatunbosun confirmed to SNY.tv.
Paul Biancardi of ESPN first reported the news.
Fox, who has drawn comparisons to Washington Wizards guard John Wall, has already taken officials to LSU and Louisville and visits Kansas this weekend for Late Night in the Phog and then Kentucky next weekend for Big Blue Madness.
He is expected to decide sometime after those visits.
“That’s the goal, it’s a feel thing for him,” Coach O said. “He’s not going to draw it out if he doesn’t have to.”
Fox indicated during a video interview with Jonathan Givony of DraftExpress.com that he wouldn’t mind playing alongside other elite guards, like Malik Monk, in college to advance their NBA prospects. Fox and Monk will be together on both the Kansas and Kentucky visits.
Fox is the projected No. 6 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft by DraftExpress.com, while Monk is projected at No. 7.
