Five-star center and McDonald’s All-American Isaiah Stewart signed with Washington on Wednesday morning.

Stewart, who verbally committed in January, picked the Huskies over fellow finalists Duke, Michigan State, Syracuse and Kentucky.

“We’re so happy to welcome Isaiah to the Husky family and ready to have him in purple and gold,” UW coach Mike Hopkins said in a release.
