Home Visit With Kentucky Tomorrow⚪️

SEC Country spoke to Wiseman’s mom ahead of the visit:
James Wiseman is staying at Memphis East High School and staying in the Class of 2019. He’s seriously considering the University of Memphis as an option, but remains high on Kentucky and is hosting John Calipari for an in-home visit next week, the 5-star center’s mother told SEC Country on Friday.
Got all that? Wiseman’s mother, Donzaleigh Artis, wanted to clear up the most-asked questions about her son, who is ranked the No. 1 overall recruit in the rising senior class.
“Let’s all get on the same page how Mama feels about school: Mama wants James to go to school and be happy,” she said. “Mama don’t play basketball. Mama won’t have to go to class. Mama is the supporter. As far as James’ college right now, James has put Memphis on his list, but James hasn’t decided on a school.”
