UNC Basketball: Braylon Mullins is down to 10 schools in his recruitment

Braylon Mullins has been one of the highest-rising prospects within the Class of 2025. While his recruitment has heated up, Mullins is ready to focus his attention on 10 schools.

Mullins announced his top 10 list on Monday, with the UNC basketball program making the initial cut. The Tar Heels are joined by Alabama, Indiana, Michigan, Tennessee, Purdue, Duke, UConn, Kentucky, and Kansas among the remaining teams in the mix.

The Greenfield, Indiana native has continued to be a high-rising prospect in the Class of 2025. Currently viewed as a four-star talent, Mullins has seen his ranking improve since the UNC basketball program extended an offer on May 21, as 247Sports now tabs him as the No. 23 overall player in the class, along with being considered the No. 3-ranked player from the state of Indiana.

It shouldn't be viewed as a major shock to see the UNC basketball program still in the field of remaining teams in this particular recruitment, given that Mullins scheduled an official visit to Chapel Hill from September 14-15. Given this, it would have been more of a surprise to see the Tar Heels eliminated from his recruitment, as it seems as if the interest is very mutual on both sides.

Mullins is a very talented guard who can impact the game in a variety of ways, as he's proven that he's much more than just a sharpshooter. Look for Hubert Davis and the UNC basketball program to put on the full-court press as they aim to bring this talented prospect to Chapel Hill next season.
