Christian Keeling

6’4,” 175 lbs

Current school: Charleston Southern

2018-19: 18.6 points, 6.9 rebounds, 2.8 assists

Christen to Christian? Wouldn’t be mad about that.

Keeling is a combo guard who is an elite talent playing at the mid-major level. Much like Rayjon Tucker, Keeling is a player who could come in and fit right away with his length and athleticism.

What stands out when watching Keeling’s tape is his hustle. As the clear-cut best player on his team, he leads by example by beating opponents to 50-50 balls. Like a lot of these elite grad transfers in this class, Keeling gets to the rim at will, and can fill it up. A career 18 point per game scorer, Keeling would be yet another option as a scoring guard who could bring leadership and another experienced option to a talented Louisville line up.

Keeling has heard from a slew of power five teams, but if they want him, Louisville will be right in the race for this future pro.
