Virginia Basketball: Huge Boost As Four-Star PG Sensation Sets Official Visit to UVA

The UVA men’s basketball program’s fall visitor schedule is beginning to take shape. Consensus four-star point guard Keyshuan Tillery has reportedly arranged an official visit to Virginia for the weekend of August 30th, as reported by 24/7 High School Hoops and League Ready on Thursday afternoon. According to the report, Tillery will visit the Cavaliers in Charlottesville on August 30th, followed by official visits to Wake Forest on September 6th, Cincinnati on September 13th, Ohio State on September 21st, and Villanova on October 4th.

Standing at 6’1″, point guard Keyshuan Tillery hails from the New Hampton School in New Hampshire and is a four-star recruit according to major recruiting services. He is ranked No. 49 in the ESPN Top 100 and No. 71 by 247Sports, which also lists him as the No. 10 point guard nationally and the No. 2 player in New Hampshire.

While Tillery hasn’t publicly confirmed an offer from Virginia, his decision to schedule an official visit suggests considerable mutual interest. In addition to UVA, he has official visits lined up with Wake Forest, Villanova, Ohio State, and Cincinnati. Tillery has also received offers from Kansas, Florida, Iowa, Louisville, Syracuse, Tennessee, Rutgers, Washington, Oklahoma, Georgia Tech, Northwestern, Georgetown, DePaul, and more.

Many of these scholarship offers have been extended this summer as Tillery has made a strong impression on the Nike EYBL circuit.

Tillery’s visit to UVA on August 30th will mark the beginning of a busy period for the Cavaliers as they welcome several top recruiting prospects to Charlottesville. On the weekend of September 13th, they will host local point guard Chance Mallory and five-star forward Nate Ament, followed by four-star point guard JJ Mandaquit and four-star power forward London Jemison on the weekend of September 27th.

While Virginia has not yet secured any verbal commitments for the 2025 recruiting class, they are on the shortlist for six four-star recruits, including:

  • PG Chance Mallory (Charlottesville, VA)
  • SF Cam Ward (Washington, D.C.)
  • PF London Jemison (West Hartford, CT)
  • CG Derek Dixon (Washington, D.C.)
  • PF Tre Singleton (Jeffersonville, IN)
  • PG JJ Mandaquit (Hilo, HI)
