From Yahoo Sports, Friday 9/8

"...Nwuli previously played for Bishop Gorman before transferring to Wasatch for his junior year. A 6-7, 200-pound power forward, Nwuli is a five-star prospect in the 247Sports composite and the nation’s No. 20 overall recruit. Ohio State offered Nwuli a scholarship last November, and UCLA, Arizona State, Louisville, San Diego State, and St. John’s are known to have also offered.

ESPN ranks him as the No. 16 prospect in his class. Nwuli is on an official visit (to Ohio State last weekend...)"

Ranked #11 Wasatch Academy (Mt. Pleasant, Utah)
Final 2022-23 ranking: Unranked

Lose: Collin Murray-Boyles (South Carolina), RJ Jones (Kansas State), Osiris Grady (Utah Valley), Jeremiah Johnson (transfer)

Return: Isiah Harwell, Malick Diallo

Add: Chris Nwuli, Tony Nwuli and John Mobley Jr. (Bishop Gorman, NV), Taj DeGourville (Durango, NV), Bhan Buom (Lincoln Southwest, NE)

Despite graduating three starters from an unranked squad, Wasatch Academy will likely enter the 2023-24 season as one of the top four or five teams in the NIBC and a top 10 team in the country. Four highly-touted prospects from Nevada — including five-star power forward Chris Nwuli and four-star point guard John Mobley Jr., teammates from Bishop Gorman — joined the Tigers, teaming up with five-star shooting guard Isiah Harwell, four-star point guard Jeremiah Johnson, and three-star center Malick Diallo.

Chris Nwuli had an unofficial visit to Ohio State a week ago. Nwuli's high school teammate, 4-star guard and Ohio State pledge, Juni Mobley went to Columbus for his official OSU visit. He has an official visit scheduled with UCLA during the winter and says he is interested in scheduling official visits with Colorado and LSU. No word on an official to SDSU.
