BATON ROUGE – Consensus five-star high school center Efton Reid has signed and had approved SEC and institutional papers to join the LSU Basketball team, LSU Athletics and Coach Will Wade announced on Sunday.
Reid, a 7-0, 240-pound center, played last season at IMG Academy in Florida where he averaged 16 points and 11 rebounds this past season.
"Efton will make an immediate impact for us on both ends of the court," said Coach Wade. "He is very skilled on the offensive end. Efton has tremendous touch and footwork around the rim to pair with an expanding perimeter game.
