Ikenna Alozie - CG
Louisville has also made 5-star point guard Ikenna Alozie's top eight earlier this summer. The Cardinals are in a recruiting battle with college basketball powerhouses, including Alabama, Gonzaga, Kansas, Houston, Kentucky, and others. The Cardinals are expected to receive a visit sometime this fall from one of the best combo guards in the 2026 class.
Alozie ranks as high as No. 14 in the nation and the fourth-best point guard in the 2026 recruiting cycle. The Cardinals don't have one of the top percentages to land his commitment, according to On3 Sports, and that might be because Louisville is all-in on either Kinney or Rippey. Nevertheless, Louisville is one of his top eight teams, and the 5-star wants to schedule a visit soon.
