NCAA men’s basketball recruiting: Evaluation period update

While the last few months of the college basketball calendar have been filled with transfer portals, coaching changes and the NBA draft, the start of July’s live evaluation period has brought high school recruiting back into focus on the college hoops landscape.

Coaches will hit the road for three weekends finalizing their 2025 targets and keeping an eye on the 2026 and 2027 classes. Fewer than 20 prospects have committed to the 2025 ESPN 100, so high-profile recruiters across the country will look to use the month as an opportunity to raise their stock before diving headlong into their recruiting.

For next month, bookmark this page, as we’ll be posting about top performers, recruiting updates, visitation schedules, commitments, and anything else that comes out of the recruiting trail.
