After Adidas 3SSB Spring Sessions II on May 18, Holt spoke with Zagisblog and talked about his recruitment regarding Auburn.

“I like Bruce [Pearl]," Holt said. "He texted me before the game and told me to show the world why I’m the best 17-year-old in the country. I feel like I have a chip on my shoulder because they dropped me in the ranking.

"So every time I step on the court, I feel like I’ve got to prove something that I’m still here and I’m ready to dominate every game. I want to be the No. 1 player in the country around this time next year, so that’s my goal."

Holt also has offers from Ole Miss, Alabama, and more.
