Bol Bol was the big movers as Scout.com released its updated Scout 100 for the Class of 2018.

Bol, a 7-2 center from Mater Dei (Santa Ana, Calif.), moved from No. 13 all the way up to to No. 2 overall, trailing only Marvin Bagley. Bol is also one of the Kentucky Wildcats’ top targets in this class, and we’re seeing why in a big way this summer.

In 15 games during the Nike EYBL season, Bol is averaging 24.1 points and 10 rebounds while shooting a ridiculous 48.9 percent from three-point range. He holds scholarship offers from Kentucky, Kansas, Arizona, Oregon, USC, Creighton and UCLA among others.

For his efforts, Bol was named MVP of the Nike EYBL regular season by D1 Circuit. See why with the latest offering from Hoop Journey:
