5-Star PF Prospect Julian Phillips Commits to LSU over Tennessee, FSU

The LSU Tigers landed one of the best players in the entire 2022 recruiting class Friday when forward Julian Phillips committed.

He made his announcement during an interview with The Field of 68.

Phillips, who is 6'8" and 200 pounds, is a 5-star prospect and the No. 15 overall player, No. 2 power forward and No. 1 player from Missouri in the 2022 class, per 247Sports' composite rankings.

The first thing that stands out about his game is his overall versatility.

Phillips can play and defend multiple positions given his length and overall athleticism, which should help him play a key role in his new team's rotation right away.
