Oklahoma State Makes Cut for Five-Star Shaedon Sharpe

STILLWATER – The recruiting process for 2022 five-star prospect Shaedon Sharpe is moving along quickly as he’s cut his list of 10 schools down to just five in less than two weeks.

Sharpe, the No. 6 overall prospect according to ESPN, has narrowed his list down to four colleges and the G League Ignite: Oklahoma State, Arizona, Kansas and Kentucky.

Sharpe is a 6-4, 175-pound shooting guard out of Dream City Christian in Glendale, Arizona. Over the summer, Sharpe played for Uplay Canada in the EYBL and was electric, averaging nearly 23 points and 6 rebounds a game, along with 2.7 assists in 28 minutes.

"I've always been a guy that can get a bucket," Sharpe told ESPN. "The difference is that my Uplay Canada team put me in position to make plays and really show out in the EYBL. It's really just been a matter of getting in the gym, working on my craft, and taking advantage of opportunities."

According to Jonathan Givony of ESPN, Sharpe has official visits scheduled to Kansas at the end of August, and Arizona and Oklahoma State scheduled for the first few weeks of September.

"I'm 100% open to all options right now," Sharpe told ESPN. "I want to see what all of them have to offer. I need to learn more about the G League in terms of what their offer is and which other players will be on the team to decide whether that's something I want to do. People have been penciling me in with Kentucky, and I'm honestly not sure where that's coming from. Maybe it's because Shai Gilgeous-Alexander went there from Uplay and was one and done. It's true they were the only official visit I've taken so far, because all the other schools asked to wait until students were back on campus and football games were being played. No one really knows anything about my situation besides my family and Dwayne."

Oklahoma State currently has one commitment in the 2022 class, Mansfield (TX) Legacy guard Quion Williams.
