King Bacot, who has the potential to sit at or near the top of his class when 2029 rankings come out in a year or two, now holds an offer from VCU head coach Ryan Odom, Field of 68’s Jeff Goodman reported on Wednesday night. Of course, the advanced guard from Richmond, Va., is the younger brother of the UNC basketball program’s all-time leading rebounder and double-double machine, Armando Bacot.

According to Goodman, the Rams offer is the first of the Division I variety in King Bacot’s recruitment.
