Syracuse basketball target Isaiah Stewart makes USA Basketball U17 team

Syracuse, N.Y. -- Isaiah Stewart, a coveted Class of 2019 forward/center from Rochester, has made USA Basketball's U17 team.

Stewart, who has a scholarship offer from Syracuse, recently trimmed his list of potential college destinations to 10. The Orange was included on that list.

At 6-foot-9, Stewart is an imposing inside presence, a teenager who never takes a play off, who rebounds with abandon and finishes through contact inside. He has been on Syracuse's radar for years, his muscular build and his athleticism early evidence of his potential.

He is now considered one of the best big man prospects in the Class of 2019.
