The Illinois basketball team is trying to put together a great class of 2026, and we are getting closer to landing a big man.
We are early in the proceedings, but the Illini have two commits for 2026 right now. Ethan Brown was the first pledge, and Landon Davis later joined the party and will be a member of the Orange and Blue.
Brown is a backcourt player, and Davis is more of a wing or forward. Illinois needs more size in the paint, and on Wednesday, we moved a step closer to snagging that big man.
