No. 42 recruit Brandon Slater commits to Villanova

ESPN 60 prospect Brandon Slater announced his commitment to Villanova on Wednesday night.

Slater, a 6-foot-5 small forward from Paul VI High School (Virginia), chose the Wildcats over Miami, Virginia, Maryland and South Carolina.

"Villanova is the school [that] when I stepped on campus, I felt home," Slater told ESPN.

Ranked No. 42 in the ESPN 60 for 2018, Slater is a smooth lefty that can make an impact at both ends of the floor due to his length. He's averaging 7.8 points and 3.2 rebounds so far this spring for Team Takeover on the Nike EYBL circuit.
