Wisconsin basketball recruiting: James Graham picks Maryland, despite late Badgers push

Over this past weekend in-state wing James Graham (Milwaukee) out of Nicolet High School announced he was pushing back his originial Sunday commitment date to this coming Friday. While it was widely assumed he’d be choosing the Maryland Terrapins, Auburn was apparently coming on strong and the in-state Badgers, despite offering late, had made a nice charge too.

However, on Wednesday afternoon Graham tweeted that he was choosing the Terrapins over his other finalists, Auburn, Memphis and Wisconsin, and that was that.

The Terps were the first high major offer that Graham received and that seemed to have struck a chord with the 247 Composite 3-star SF.
