CU Buffs basketball adds 2020 forward Jabari Walker

The Colorado men’s basketball team has locked down the frontcourt reinforcement it sought after the graduation of Lucas Siewert and Tyler Bey’s departure for the NBA draft. And more help might still be on the way.

On Tuesday afternoon, the Buffaloes received a verbal commitment from Phoenix-area forward Jabari Walker, who made his announcement via his Twitter account. The 6-foot-8 Walker, considered a four-star recruit out of the 2020 class by 247Sports.com, is the son of former Louisville star and 10-year NBA player Samaki Walker.

Walker is expected to sign his letter of intent when the spring signing period begins April 15.
