Indiana is getting a senior year official visit from class of 2026 5-star wing Anthony Thompson.
According to a report by 247Sports national analyst Travis Branham, Thompson will come to Bloomington for an official visit the weekend of Sept. 12.
For Thompson it will be a return trip, as he came to Bloomington multiple times when the prior staff was in charge.
The 6-foot-8 Thompson will also take officials to North Carolina (Aug. 22), Ohio State (Aug. 29), Michigan (Sept. 5), Texas (Sept. 19) and Kentucky (Sept. 24).
The Ohio native recently named a top-seven that also included Purdue, but he has not scheduled a visit there yet, according to Branham.
“Coach DeVries, I’ve developed a good relationship with him and his staff at Indiana,” Thompson told TDH last month at the Adidas 3SSB event in Rock Hill S.C.
The 6-foot-8 and 205-pound Thompson has a 7-foot-3 and-a-half wingspan. He attends Western Reserve Academy.
Thompson is currently a 5-star, ranked No. 8 overall in the 2026 class, and the No. 3 small forward according to the average of the national outlets.
Playing for Indiana Elite this spring and summer, Thompson was one of the top scorers on the Adidas circuit. He averaged 22.8 points to go with 5.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.4 steals per game.
Indiana is up to four rising seniors with scheduled visits over the next three months. They are all ranked in the national top-40:
- Tay Kinney: Aug. 29-31
- Davion Adkins: Sept. 12-14
- Anthony Thompson: Sept. 12-14
- Deron Rippey: Oct. 17-19
