By ADAM ZAGORIA

Hunter Sallis, the 6-foot-4 Class of 2021 combo guard from Omaha (NE) Millard North, has cut his list to 12 schools.

Ranked the No. 3 combo guard in the Class of 2021 by 247Sports.com, Sallis is down to Alabama, Auburn, Creighton, Gonzaga, Iowa State, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisville, Michigan, North Carolina, Oregon and UCLA.

“I feel like it is the best fit for me and they can put me in the best position to improve for the next level,” Sallis told Omaha.com. “I also want to win, and (these programs) give me the best opportunity to do that.”

His only official visit was to Gonzaga in January.

Kentucky offered Sallis last Friday.
