Babatunde Oladotun has reclassified from 2027 to 2026 and will graduate this spring from Blake High School in Maryland. Oladotun won’t be 18 until December of his freshman year in college.
Oladotun was the No. 1 high school player in the class of 2027 and will likely be a top-10 recruit for 2026
“First and foremost, I am ahead of schedule academically and will graduate next year,” Oladuton told ESPN. “Most of my life, I have played up in age and after playing in the 17U division for Team Durant, I felt comfortable. I have gained 20 pounds over the last year and it never felt like I was playing up. Lastly, I am staying and graduating from Blake High School. It is a great environment, and I have a lot of support.”
Among those schools, he plans to visit Maryland and Virginia Tech first. Oladotun also unofficially visited UCLA and USC last year.
“We are looking for a coach that has a long history of teaching and winning,” his father, Ibrahim, told ESPN. “Someone who knows how to use a big guard and has a history of coaching big guards. A coach that also plays an NBA-style offense with quick actions.”
