A bit of a secret. His dad is originally from BR and he has family in the local area is one of the attractions to LSU.

[link=(Mwani Wilkinson

.
This time a year ago, the 6-foot-5 forward was a relatively unknown junior at Las Vegas (Nev.) Bishop Gorman. Sure, he was a big-time athlete, but skill, position and fit were all questions. Fast forward to today and he’s climbed all the way up to No. 79 in the 2020 rankings and is nearing a decision.
The current players in his recruitment are LSU, USC, UNLV and Vanderbilt and he’s been to all of the campuses. Also, from what he and his coach Grant Rice have told me in the last week or so, he’s getting closer and closer to a decision. If I had to ballpark it, I’d bet that it’s likely down to LSU and Vanderbilt.
That being said, if I were a top 15-20 type program who needed to find a late signee in 2020, I’d be shooting my shot with Wilkinson right now. Why not? He’s going to keep getting better. He’s a big-time competitor, his skill is improving rapidly and with everybody talking about positionless basketball, Wilkinson is true fit for that style of play.
Those recruiting him may be mad at me for screaming at the college basketball world to take a crack at him, but I bet anybody who does their homework on him will be glad to at least make a run at him.

He would be a great replacement for Williams.

It’s embarrassing how underrated he is at 90

I think he’s closer to Watford.

He’s smaller than all those guys but he’s an equivalent to Taylor defensively with the ability to guard 1-4 in the lineup. His game looks more smooth than Taylor’s but he’s obviously not the same athlete. Overall, him, Anselem and O’Neal is the dream finish imo

Watched him play against Oak Hill recently and he destroyed them. Very very impressive player who seems underrated even around #100. Wont be a naz Reid or trendon Watford coming in but will provide a lot of quality bench minutes from day 1.

They have him listed at 6'6 195 but he looked a decent bit bigger than that in person. Maybe 210-215 at least. They also had him listed as a power forward but switched him to small forward and I agree with that, although he can very much bang down low too.

Search Bishop Gorman vs.Oak hill in YouTube, from recent.

#23 in blue was Wilkinson, #24 in white was our 5 star Cam Thomas who also dominated.

If you add Wilkinson to our class our points jump up to 61.94 which would put us in the Top 10 as of today
