Syracuse transfer Jesse Edwards names top 3 schools

By ADAM ZAGORIA

Syracuse transfer Jesse Edwards is down to a top 3 of West Virginia, Gonzaga and Kansas.

He will visit West Virginia Friday but has no other visits planned, his father said.

The 6-foot-11 big man from The Netherlands averaged 14.5 points, 10.3 rebounds and 2.7 blocks while shooting 59% from the field as a senior in Jim Boeheim’s final year at Syracuse. He went for 27 points, 20 rebounds, 5 steals and 2 blocks in a win over Wake Forest on March 4.
