Rivals has updated their rankings for the 2020 hoops recruiting class, expanding to a top 125. Click here for the rankings. Click here to learn more about Jalen Green, the number one player in the 2020 class. Below I have provided a breakdown of where Cal targets stack up.
#1. 5-star shooting guard Jalen Green.
#4. 5-star point guard R.J. Hampton (-1).
#7. 5-star small forward Greg Brown III.
#10. 5-star point guard Jalen Suggs (-4).
#12. 5-star shooting guard Josh Christopher (-3).
#18. 5-star power forward Jaemyn Brakefield (-3).
#22. 5-star small forward Julian Strawther (-12).
#25. 4-star small forward Johnny Juzang (+4).
#31. 4-star shooting guard Ziaire Williams (+8).
#32. 4-star small forward Jabri Abdur-Rahim (-8).
#35. 4-star shooting guard Dalen Terry (+36).
#57. 4-star power forward Isaiah Cottrell (-30).
#61. 4-star shooting guard Jaylen Clark (-23).
#62. 4-star shooting guard Nimari Burnett (+2).
#102. 4-star shooting guard Tramon Mark (-30).
Notes: 5-star point guard Nico Mannion came in at #21, rising five spots. I did not mention him above because he scratched Cal off of his list. The recruits who Cal seems to be gaining the most traction with are Ziaire Williams, Dalen Terry, Isaiah Cottrell, Jaylen Clark, Nimari Burnett, and Tramon Mark. Josh Christopher and Jabri Abdur-Rahim don't seem to be too interested in Cal right now, but I know Cal is still interested in both guys.
The rest of the guys are being pursued by Cal but it looks likely that they'll commit to other schools. I hope to interview more of these guys in the near future to get a better feel. If anyone has any more questions, comment below.
