Alabama and Auburn basketball landed big-time recruits over the past two days, and it was Mississippi State’s turn moments ago.

The Bulldogs have secured a commitment from four-star shooting guard Eli Wright, according to multiple reports. Scout.com’s Evan Daniels broke the news.

Eli Wright just verbally committed to Ben Howland and Mississippi State, he tells Scout. “Everything is just perfect.”
