CINCINNATI — The Bearcats could land another four-star recruit in basketball this week. Oak Ridge's (Florida) Jalen Reece is down to Cincinnati, LSU, and Providence as his final schools, with a commitment date this Wednesday.

Joe Tipton reported the point guard's commitment date and final three schools. Reece has a clear fondness for Cincinnati, plus, a nice relationship he's formed with Jizzle James during their time playing together before James got to UC. The 6-foot guard displays consistent scoring ability as an active player at all three levels.

According to 247Sports, Reece is ranked 65th nationally and 10th among point guards. He'd join fellow four-star guard Keyshuan Tillery in UC's 2025 class.

He can turn defense into offense quickly, with noticeable acceleration. Reece would be a perfect fit in Wes Miller's offensive system as Cincinnati rolls out more wing-shooting options this season and beyond.
