Lawrence will be playing for his third high school in as many years.

Lawrence has been around the Miami program, with unofficial visits to Miami in the fall of 2025, including dates in late August, September and November.

Lawrence is still in the early stages of the process, and the list itself will likely evolve as time goes on. Regardless, it is a positive sign that Miami is sitting in the top 10.
