Marquette men’s basketball will have to wait a bit longer for its third commitment of the 2020 recruiting class. Highly-touted point guard R.J. Davis chose North Carolina over Marquette, Georgetown and Pitt Monday morning.
The 6-foot-1 point guard is 57th nationally in 247Sports’ 2020 recruiting rankings. The prominent recruiting site had 12 predictions from its experts on Davis’ commitment. Eleven of them chose North Carolina.
Davis took visits to each of the four finalists, including a stop at Marquette last month.
The decision leaves Marquette with four open scholarships with the November signing period less than a month away.
