The final On3 2025 basketball rankings have been released, and Kentucky Wildcats fans have plenty to be excited about. Known for consistently attracting top-tier talent, John Calipari’s program once again finds itself near the top of the recruiting landscape as several key commits have earned prestigious placements in the updated list.
Leading the way is five-star guard Darryn Peterson, who secured a top-5 spot nationally. With his elite scoring ability, high basketball IQ, and two-way versatility, Peterson is expected to be a cornerstone for Kentucky’s future backcourt. His rise in the rankings solidifies his status as one of the best guards in the class.
Joining him in the rankings is forward AJ Dybantsa, another five-star talent who recently reaffirmed his commitment to the Wildcats. Ranked inside the top 10, Dybantsa brings length, athleticism, and strong perimeter skills that make him a dangerous threat on both ends of the floor.
Rounding out Kentucky’s notable mentions is four-star big man Caleb Wilson, who cracked the top 25 with his consistent development and strong summer showings. His inside presence and rebounding ability have made him one of the most underrated bigs in the class.
With a mix of elite guards, wings, and frontcourt players, Kentucky’s 2025 class is shaping up to be one of the strongest in the nation. If the rankings are any indication, the Wildcats are poised to reload and make another deep tournament run in the years to come.
