Florida State is expected to host Memphis (Tenn.) Briarcrest Christian five-star junior point guard Kennedy Chandler for an official visit this weekend.



Chandler, who is ranked as the No. 15 overall prospect and No. 2 point guard in the 2021 class by the 247Sports.com Composite Recruiting Rankings, is expected to arrive in Tallahassee on Sunday, with his official visit lasting until Tuesday. The middle of the visit will include Chandler attending FSU’s game against Louisville.

The 6-foot-1, 160-pound point guard is expected to make the visit with his father, as well as possibly others.

The Seminoles are one of the 10 main contenders for Chandler at this point in his recruitment. Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Memphis, Tennessee and more help to make up his current list of favorites.

Before he makes his way to Tallahassee, he is expected in Lexington, Ky. on Saturday for an unofficial visit. His most recent official visit was to Michigan a week ago.

The Blue Devils claim both predictions on the 247Sports.com Crystal Ball for Chandler.

He has not set a specific timeline for a decision.

247Sports.com’s Director of Basketball Scouting Jerry Meyer compares Chandler to Eric Bledsoe.

He states that he ‘plays with surprising strength and exceptional explosive athleticism at 6-1. Regularly gets to the rim. Draws fouls at a high rate. Tremendous passer on the move. Adequate three-point shooter but plenty room for improvement. Creative finisher off the dribble. Rebounds position and is a disruptive defender.’
