Miami Hurricanes land big oral commitment in basketball
The University of Miami basketball program, looking to replenish its talent after losing Lonnie Walker IV and Bruce Brown early to the NBA, landed a big oral commitment Wednesday when four-star point guard Isaiah Wong announced he will play for UM.
Wong, from Drexel Hills, Pennsylvania, is rated by Rivals.com as the 71st-best player in the 2019 class. He chose UM over Villanova, Clemson, Pittsburgh and Connecticut, among others.
UM plans to use Wong (6-2, 165 pounds) primarily at point guard, where he likely will back up Chris Lykes, but he also can play some shooting guard.
Wong averaged 23 points and four assists last season.
