Ukranian big man Volodymyr Markovetskyy signs with WSU hoops

The Washington State Cougars have added another player to their 2019 class, as Volodymyr Markovetskyy has signed a letter of intent to play for new coach Kyle Smith which could be officially announced later today, a source has confirmed to CougCenter. The commitment was first reported this morning by ESPN’s Jonathan Givony.

Markovetskyy is WSU’s biggest recruit in some time, standing 7-foot-2, and he has experience at the international level for his native Ukraine. In last summer’s FIBA European U18 Championships, he averaged 11.3 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in 24.3 minutes across seven games.
