LOVE & BASKETBALL: HIGH SCHOOL HOOPS STARS ATTEND PROM TOGETHER

DJ Wagner and Juju Watkins are two of the top high school basketball recruits in the country.

Wagner, a five-star point guard out of New Jersey, is set to play at Kentucky next year. Watkins, a five-star guard out of California, is set to attend USC.

While they attended high school 3,000-plus miles apart from one another, they ended up going to prom together.

Wagner shared photos of the couple on their prom date.

Watkins is glad she went.

"It's something that I'll be able to look back on and be proud that I went. I feel like it's so easy to be like, oh, I'm so busy and I can't go, but the fact that I was able to go and experience that with my friends, who I won't see for a long time because we're all going to college, was definitely something that I'll show my kids one day," she told PEOPLE.

Wagner asked Watkins over FaceTime.

"He asked me on Facetime, actually. We started talking about prom and he asked me," she admitted.

It looks like a fun time was had by all.
