Caleb Holt, a highly sought-after talent with a long history of interest from UNC, is set to make another significant move in his basketball journey. After making waves at Buckhorn High School in Alabama and then transferring to Grayson High School in Georgia, where he powered his team to the state title game, Holt is now headed to the Sunshine State. He’ll be donning the jersey for Prolific Prep, which is making a notable shift from Napa, California, to Fort Lauderdale.
Standing at 6 feet 5 inches and weighing 200 pounds, this five-star prospect has maintained a strong position in the recruiting landscape. Although Holt’s ranking has slipped slightly to No. 5 on the 247Sports 2026 Composite, he remains firmly in the conversation as one of the top players in his class, sitting at No. 2 among shooting guards. However, in a testament to the growing competitiveness of high school basketball in Florida, he ranks fourth in that state alone.
As he prepares for his senior season, Holt is still on the radar of various powerhouse programs, with reports indicating that bluebloods like Kansas and Kentucky are intensifying their recruitment efforts. Meanwhile, UNC under Hubert Davis is maintaining their interest, although it appears that other programs might be stepping up to the plate.
In the world of high school basketball recruiting, it’s worth noting that just one of the top 25 prospects in the 2026 class has made a commitment so far, leaving a wide-open field for talent like Holt to shape his future. As college teams look to bolster their rosters, the competition for players of Holt’s caliber is more intense than ever, promising an exciting journey ahead not just for him but for all programs vying for his skills on the court.
