When Ohio State basketball signed their 2023 recruiting class, they were viewed as one of the best classes in the country. It’s an impressive group that will arrive in Columbus shortly.
The Buckeyes have a long list of signees that have won Mr. Basketball in Ohio and today another name was added to that list, Pickerington Central’s Devin Royal. The small forward was given the designation of the best basketball player in the state.

After winning the state title last year, Pickerington Central will try and repeat this weekend as they face off against Centerville for all the marbles.
🏆 Congratulations @DevinRoyal7 on being named 2023 Ohio Mr. Basketball!

Just think; next season Royal will be doing his thing in a scarlet and gray uniform. We can’t wait to follow his journey.
