Kingsley Rogers, a 6‑foot‑5 guard/wing from Long Island, is already making waves in the 2028 basketball class. He will spend his junior year at Williston Northampton School in Easthampton, Massachusetts, where his versatility and feel for the game have drawn early attention.
A Recruiting Surge
The youngster has already secured scholarship offers from several high‑major programs, including New Mexico, Albany, Hofstra and Florida Atlantic. Syracuse sits near the top of his list, with the Orange’s freshly assembled coaching staff, led by first‑year head coach Gerry McNamara, making a concerted effort to bring him to campus.
Rogers plans to take unofficial visits to Syracuse, Boston College and Siena this fall, a schedule that reflects both his expanding options and his desire to experience each school’s environment firsthand. The interest is reciprocal; teammates Kevin Wheatley Jr. and Damian Mojica have already stepped onto the Syracuse campus, and Malik Moore, Rogers’s AAU teammate, has been in regular contact with the Orange since the 2028 contact period opened on June 15.
On the Court and Beyond
During the EYBL circuit, Rogers averaged 7.3 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.3 steals per game for the PSA Cardinals, shooting efficiently enough to spark praise from analysts. Those numbers, combined with the buzz surrounding Syracuse’s revamped program, have turned heads across the recruiting landscape, positioning him as a prospect to watch as the class of 2028 takes shape.
