Kentucky is recruiting Karter Knox, who is the brother of former Kentucky forward Kevin Knox II. 

Knox is ranked as the 11th best player in the 2024 class according to 247Sports composite rankings. 

On3's recruiting prediction machine gives the Cats a 48.5% chance to land Knox, with the next closest team being Kentucky's rival, the Louisville Cardinals, at 42.5%. 

The six-foot-five small forward recently participated in Overtime Elite's Pro Day and was one of the top performers, as well as Kentucky commit Somto Cyril.

Knox is a good shooter and can jump out of the gym. 

He will fit in really well with what Coach John Calipari likes to do, which makes Knox such an important target for the Cats 2024 class. 

Cyril is the only player committed to Kentucky in the 2024 cycle, so landing Knox would be a massive boost to this class. 

Hopefully, family ties will help Knox make the right decision and choose the Kentucky Wildcats over the Louisville Cardinals.
