Derek Dixon may soon have company in the 2025 UNC basketball recruiting haul.
UNC basketball stacks up at only No. 53 in the country and No. 11 among ACC programs on the 2025 recruiting trail, per 247Sports, as Gonzaga College High School four-star guard Derek Dixon remains the lone Tar Heel commit.Dixon, a 6-foot-3, 190-pound crafty playmaker and silky sharpshooter who ranks No. 47 overall on the 247Sports 2025 Composite, announced his pledge to Hubert Davis & Co. back in late September.
Now, it looks as though Dixon's month-long solitude in the class could come to an end as early as 4 p.m. ET Saturday when Davidson Day School four-star guard Isaiah Denis reveals his decision to national recruiting insider Travis Branham on the 247Sports YouTube Channel. Denis, a 6-foot-5, 175-pound high-motor athlete and potential 3-and-D standout currently checking in at No. 62 overall and No. 2 among North Carolina preps in the cycle, began his official visit with Hubert Davis and the Tar Heels the day after Dixon advertised his commitment to UNC. He has since toured Tennessee and Wake Forest, and he previously checked out Pitt, Ohio State, and Miami.
Although there's been no formal announcement of a list cut from his top 10 — UNC, Pitt, Ohio State, Wake Forest, Tennessee, Miami, Kansas, Michigan, Mississippi State, Cincinnati — the following 247Sports graphic for Isaiah Denis' big day suggests the winner will be one of the six he visited, effectively ruling out Kansas, Michigan, Mississippi State, and Cincinnati.
Isaiah Denis, the No. 47 overall recruit in the country, talked his final visits to Tennessee and Wake Forest ahead of his decision that will come Saturday, November 2nd at 4:00 PM ET live onNeither the 247Sports Crystal Ball nor On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine contains any picks for the Isaiah Denis sweepstakes. But the lone Rivals FutureCast prediction points to his UNC basketball suitors as the favorite, and that aligns with some of the chatter from various insiders in recent weeks.
