Divincenzo is quickly becoming a national prospect, after he was ranked #78 in the country in the latest Rivals150 recruiting rankings for 2015. Villanova was reportedly scouting him during the July Live Period, but it wasn't until late Wednesday night that he picked up the offer.
As you can see in the video, he's got great size for a guard, and he possesses a great eye for the pass as well as a quick release on an accurate shot from deep. He also displays good athleticism on the break. It's difficult to tell from a highlight video, but the reason most analysts are projecting him as a shooting guard appears to be his ball handling skills, which could improve.
In addition to 'Nova, Divincenzo holds offers from Boston College, Delaware, La Salle, Monmouth, Penn State, Rhode Island, St. Joseph's (PA) and Virginia Tech.
