In the end it was between Kentucky and Duke, and Gabriel chose the Wildcats.
“I felt a connection to all the coaches in my final five, but ultimately it came down to Duke and Kentucky,” Gabriel said, “and I just felt like I couldn’t go wrong either way.”
“Kentucky made it clear that they had a plan for me personally and for helping me to take my game to the next level,” Gabriel said.
Gabriel is a 6’9 senior and plays for Wilbraham & Monson Academy in Manchester, New Hampshire.
