According to Adam Zagoria, 2014 3-Star Canadian Power Forward Ray Kasongo will be visiting NC State on June 21st.
UCLA, Kentucky, Arizona, USC, NC State, California, Stanford,DePaul, West Virginia, Cincinnati, Ohio State and Wright State have expressed interest. Out of those schools, NC State, Arizona, DePaul, UCLA, and USC have offered.
Kasongo is a raw athletic specimen, and his coaches believe that if he puts it all together, a college could be in store for something special.

[/INDENT][INDENT]âWow,â he said in reference to Kasongoâs enormous upside and natural athleticism. âHonestly, Ray Kasongo is just a physical specimen,â Clayton said, adding âwe expect him to continue to have that athletic edge over guys. Our goal is to prepare him the best we can, we have a spot for him definitelyâ. (ZagsBlog)
[/INDENT]Back in September, Kasongo included NC State along with DePaul, Arizona, USC, and UCLA, which happen to be the five school who have offered him. As interest increases, and offers continue to come in, it will be interesting to see if this list is altered.

Quote: âRay just needs to buckle down, heâs now realizing that he canât just rely on his freakish athleticism and big body to get to the level he wants to get to,â Williams said. âHeâs realizing the work that people who are at his talent level put in to reach their dreams of playing D-1 basketball, but athletically, the sky is the limit for this kid.âNext season Kasongo will be playing for St. Johnâs Northwestern Military Academy in Delafield, Wisconsin. Here is what St. Johnâs assistant coach Brian Clayton had to say about Kasongo.
[INDENT]He added: âRay runs the floor extremely well for a kid his size, good rebounder and so strongâ¦he would be very hard to handle at the small forward or power forward, but I do think he does have some work to put in to become a good 3 or 4 at the next levelâ.(Pikeville Head Coach Bart Williams)
