Class of 2021 Stanford commit Isael Silva will transfer to Prolific Prep (CA) for his senior season.
Silva, the 6-foot-3, 185-pound point guard, will leave Jesuit (CA) and join a Prolific Prep roster that features five-star big Nathan Bittle, four-star forward Kamari Lands and 2022 Memphis commit Arterio Morris.
Prolific Prep announced the hiring of Mark Phelps as head coach earlier this month.
After committing to Stanford in April, Silva says he’s recruiting five-star Harrison Ingram to join him.
“That’s one of my closest friends in the basketball world,” Silva said. “We talk virtually every day. Usually about Stanford, but talk about random stuff just like boys. I talk to him a lot. Hopefully, we can become teammates. I think that would be fun for college basketball.”
Silva says he’s also been recruiting Class of 2021 big Ryan Mutombo as well as a couple overseas prospects.
“Ryan Mutombo, a big kid, I talk to him sometimes just checking on him,” Silva said. “A couple kids from overseas. I’m trying to play my role as being the first commit.”
According to 247Sports.com, Silva is ranked as the No. 4 point guard and No. 35 overall player in the Class of 2021.
