Kentucky basketball recruit Skyy Clark scores 51 points in season opener
Kentucky basketball commitment Skyy Clark had quite the debut for his new high school.
Clark, who is committed to the Wildcats for the class of 2022, scored 51 points and added five rebounds and five assists to lead Ensworth School (Tenn.) to a 91-76 victory over Brentwood on Thursday night. Clark set the school record for most points in a game in his very first outing for Ensworth after moving to Nashville from the Los Angeles area earlier this year. He had 36 points and made five three-pointers in the first half alone.
UK extended a scholarship offer to Clark — a 6-foot-3 point guard — over the summer, and he committed to the Wildcats last month, becoming UK’s first pledge for the 2022 class. Clark is still considering a move to the class of 2021, though no decision on reclassification is expected until after the season.
