Rising Prospect Acaden Lewis Sought After by Multiple Top Programs; UNC Looks to Make a Strong Pitch

Acaden Lewis has been receiving attention from a number of Blue Blood programs, including North Carolina and Kentucky. The Tar Heels made an official offer to the 2025 prospect in June, adding him to their already impressive recruiting board. However, Lewis is not just interested in UNC, as he has also received offers from Kansas and Duke.

The rise of Lewis’ stock in recent months has caught the attention of many programs, including experts like Dushawn London and Travis Branham of 247Sports. They have highlighted his potential as a top recruit, noting that he excels on the big stage and never backs down from a challenge. Since April, Lewis has received offers from a number of schools including Kentucky, Kansas, Indiana, Auburn and others.

Lewis stands at 6-foot-2 and weighs 170 pounds, making him the No. 34 prospect nationally and the No. 6 combo guard according to 247Sports. The Tar Heels will have the opportunity to make their pitch during his upcoming visits to UNC for both an unofficial visit this summer and an official visit in October. However, they will face tough competition for his recruitment as other programs are also interested in him. It is clear that North Carolina will need to make a strong case if they want to land this talented prospect.
