On Tuesday, Rivals released their latest update to Rivals150 hoops rankings for the class of 2023 and it featured two current Rutgers Basketball commits.
Below is a list of those prospects as well as where they were ranked in the previous rankings.
NEW RANKING: 20
PREVIOUS RANKING: 30
Griffths overall ranking has risen once again as he continues to prove he might be the number one overall shooter in the class of 2023. In the latest update, he moved up 10 spots in the rankings, going from four-star to five-star.
"Griffiths is definitely a player that Rutgers fans should be excited about. He’s arguably the best shooter in the class and at 6-foot-7, gives Steve Pikiell a versatile weapon on the perimeter. Griffiths gives you a knockdown shooter that can play a couple of positions and should really excel in the Scarlet Knights’ system." -- Rivals Hoops Recruiting Analyst Travis Graf
NEW RANKING: 140
PREVIOUS RANKING: Unranked
One of the new faces in the top 150 rankings, also happens to be the most recent 2023 commit for the Scarlet Knights in forward Baye Ndongo. Now Ndongo is a bit of a project as he is still learning the game, but his upside is insanely high as he recently dominated the Tark Classic over in Las Vegas.
“Ndongo is a very good project big man piece for Steve Pikiell as he continues to strengthen the Rutgers program. Initially, he provides length and defense, as his current strength is that he’s always filling box scores with rebounds and steals. Ndongo’s motor will also be welcomed by Pikiell. He plays hard on every possession and runs the floor well. His skill set is developing, but I wouldn’t expect too much from him offensively early on." -- Rivals Hoops Recruiting Analyst Travis Graf
