Kentucky offers top-3 point guard out of Pennsylvania

He's got some slick moves in his arsenal too.

Quade Green is the No. 3 point guard in the class of 2017 with offers from all the blue bloods like Arizona, Duke, Kansas and Kentucky among others. The 6'1", 170-pound guard out of Pennsylvania plays for coach Carl Arrigale at Neumann-Goretti High School.

Green becomes the third point guard offered by the Wildcats in the class behind Tremont Waters and Trae Young. However, his coach is very high on him and compares him favorably to a guard who just left UK.

"I know they do feel like their backcourt this year [Isaiah Briscoe, Malik Monk and De'Aaron Fox] is going to be talented enough to all be gone possibly next year so they're looking for players to come in and play," Arrigale said Monday on The 4 Quarters Podcast. "They see him as a Tyler Ulis maybe with a couple more inches, which is probably a pretty good comparison. He's got the guts of burglar. He plays really hard, he's not afraid of any moment and he watched the Kentucky teams with Tyler out there. They see him as being a guy who can play that similar role for them the next few years."

Green is ranked as a five-star recruit and is the No. 22 recruit in ESPN's rankings. He's the second-best recruit in the state and seventh in his region.
