Completing the trio of 2012 attendees is Siyani Chambers, a Hopkins High (Minn.) senior given three stars by both Rivals.com and Scout.com.

A friend of current Harvard freshman Jonah Travis, the 5’11”, 160-lb point guard said his top two choices are Harvard—which he said began recruiting him in eighth grade—and UC Davis, to which he has a trip scheduled. He is also speaking with UC Santa Barbara and Loyola Marymount.

“I think he’s a really solid point guard and he would be a good fit for Harvard,” said Borzello of Chambers, who possesses a 3.7 GPA and recently retook the ACT for the third time. “He could run the show for four years.”

THE BIG SHOTS OF 2017

Perhaps even more eye-opening is the fivesome of high school juniors also exploring Cambridge this weekend. Amaker and his staff are welcoming an impressive array of high school talent; all are consensus top-100 players, and several of them are among the best 50 in the country.

In short, they are unlike anything Harvard has ever seen before.

Because they are not seniors, the five are embarking upon self-financed unofficial visits.

“They could be going to Louisville, they could be going to Georgetown, and they’re paying their way out to Harvard,” Borzello said. “I think that shows something.”

“I would almost guarantee that 2013 group is unparalleled in terms of any campus [hosting players this weekend],” Borzello added.

The headline act of the show is likely 6’7”, 190-lb Brannen Greene, who along with his 4.0 GPA, boasts offers from Florida, Florida State, Georgia Tech, UConn, Louisville, and Kansas, among others.

Given a 97 by ESPN and ranked No. 16 in the U.S. by CBS, Greene visited Florida State last weekend and UConn yesterday. He’ll also be heading to Kansas for its Midnight Madness event.

“I love Coach Amaker, and I love Coach Hufnagel,” Greene said. “I’m looking forward to seeing what it’s like up there and taking it from there.”

“His stroke is fantastic, really deep range,” said Borzello of the Mary Persons High (Ga.) junior. “I think that would be an unbelievable get for Harvard.”

Greene said he will make a short list around November and a decision the month after.

Greene will be meeting up with his friend Stephen Domingo of St. Ignatius High (Calif.) in Cambridge. A 6’7”, 195-lb wing player with a 3.4 GPA, Domingo has visited Georgetown and UC Berkeley and plans to visit Arizona and Washington as well.
