Boateng Adds Basketball Offers

Lincoln High School’s (Brooklyn, NY) Nyan Boateng is proving this summer that he is a true dual-sport star. The 6-3, 195 pound shooting guard has had an impressive summer on the AAU circuit, including recently when he led the Adidas camp in scoring.

Having already received over 30 scholarship offers to play wide receiver in football, Boateng has seen his basketball offer total increase over the summer. He claims recent basketball offers from Virginia Tech, UNC, Syracuse, and Mississippi State in addition to the offers he had before from Florida and Memphis.

With so many schools offering for football and with the recent basketball interest, Boateng has now decided to wait until after his senior football season to make his decision. He had earlier thought he would decide before the beginning of September.

“Yeah, I’m going to wait to make my decision now,” Boateng said. “I have new offers from basketball now, so everything’s kind of hitting me at once. I’m going to take all five visits and play out the process. I might have a decision by December.”
