BYU basketball team offers Orem High’s Chamberlain Burgess

PROVO, Utah – Activity on the recruiting trail for BYU basketball and its 2025 recruiting class continues to heat up.

With just three and a half months until signing day, head coach Kevin Young and his staff are introducing their list of prospects for the class of 2025. The latest addition was a scholarship offer to Orem High forward Chamberlain Burgess.

“After a great discussion with Coach Young and the coaching staff, I am very grateful to have received an offer from BYU,” Burgess wrote on Instagram.

Burgess is a 6-foot-9 prospect who played at Lone Peak High School for three years.

Recruitment activity increases for Chamberlain Burgess

In addition to an offer from BYU, Burgess also received a scholarship from Hawaii and was offered a scholarship again by the new coaching staff at Utah State.

This flurry of recruiting activity for Burgess follows a strong showing at the Palmetto Road 3SSB event in South Carolina. Burgess and his Utah Prospects 17-and-under teammates won their second straight championship, defeating Indiana Elite earlier this week.

Last month, Burgess helped Orem High finish 3-1 at the Section 7 event in Arizona, with one of the wins coming against Sierra Canyon High in California.

Burgess is the nephew of current BYU basketball assistant Chris Burgess. His parents played for both the BYU men’s and women’s basketball programs. Josh Burgess played at BYU during the late Steve Cleveland era, and Burgess’ mother is Ashleigh Burgess (née Chamberlain). She played for former head coach Jeff Judkins at BYU.

Burgess averaged 12.2 points, 8.5 rebounds, 3.0 blocks and 2.1 assists per game last season at Lone Peak High School.
