2018 Brewster forward Nate Roberts is down to a final five of Washington, UConn, Syracuse, Nebraska & Wake Forest

Roberts is a 6-8 PF out of Bel Air, MD and Brewster Academy.
Based on 247Sports Wake doesn’t have an offer out to Roberts. He has offers from Cincinnati, Connecticut, Georgia, St. Johns, and Syracuse.
He’s ranked 196th nationally in the composite rankings, and it appears that Syracuse and Washington (guessing this is Mike Hopkins related) are high on him.
Should Roberts commit to Wake Forest it would be the second commit for the 2018 recruiting class behind Sharone Wright, Jr. I don’t have any inside information on this one, but I would guess that Roberts may be a backup plan for Wake Forest at this point to Nate Laszewski.
Laszewski received 7 Crystal Ball predictions in an hour yesterday for Notre Dame, so Roberts may become a more feasible option sooner rather than later.
We will have more up on this and all your other recruiting needs when the information comes out.
