Men's Basketball Announces Signing of Kaleb Scott

First Member of 2020-21 Signing Class

ATLANTA – Georgia State head coach Rob Lanier announced Wednesday the signing of big man Kaleb Scott to the Panther roster for the 2020-21 season.
Scott, a 6-8, 235-pound forward from Fuquay-Varina, N.C., currently plays for Holly Springs High School and is a member of the Garner Road Basketball Club.

"We are excited to welcome Kaleb into our program," Lanier said. "Kaleb has the physical tools and overall makeup to be a great college player. He has been highly-recruited because of his performance on the court, his character and his excellence in the classroom. He will add to the strength of our developing frontline. Our staff looks forward to working with him when he arrives next summer."

Scott, a three-star prospect, is currently ranked the No. 18 in the state of North Carolina by 247Sports and the No. 338 player nationally.

As a junior, Scott was an all-conference first-team member last year while at Holly Spring High School.

During his sophomore year, he recorded a double-double with 35 points and 10 rebounds against Middle Creek High School.

Georgia State will continue a stretch of five-straight games away from home on Friday, at No. 2 Duke. Tip is set for 7 p.m. from Cameron Indoor Stadium and can be seen live on the ACC Network.
