"Bossi’s take: The most recent addition to Brad Underwood’s 2021 recruiting class at Illinois, wing
Ramses Melendez has been one of the more interesting wing players to scout. He has good size, is fluid in his movement and is a skilled basketball player who can do many things with the ball in his hands.
When his jump shot is rolling and he’s making good decisions with the ball as a passer and handler, Melendez looks like a no brainer four-star prospect. However, I’ve also seen him struggle mightily with his shot and also have his interest level in what is happening vary. When we finalize 2021 rankings, Melendez will definitely be under consideration and if Underwood and the Illini can get him to be more consistent then they could really be onto something."
