  • Blake Harris to Washington

    Share Zagsblog Share Zagsblog
    Blake Harris, a 6-foot-3 point guard from Word of God Christian Academy (N.C.), committed to Washington on Monday, he announced on Twitter.

    Harris joins 6-5 small forward Jaylen Nowell in Lorenzo Romar’s Class of 2017 haul.

    “He’s a very athletic guard with tremendous feel,” Word of God coach Brian Clifton told SNY.tv.. “He can really pass the ball and is potentially a great defender. He’s a great young man who will benefit from the mentorship of Coach Romar.”

    Washington is also expected to land 6-9 small forward Michael Porter Jr., whose father Michael Porter Sr. is on the Washington staff. Washington remains in the mix for Porter Jr.’s MoKan Elite teammate Trae Young, who is considering Oklahoma, Kentucky, Kansas and Washington, among others.

    Harris is the second Word of God guard to commit to a Pac-12 school, following Rawle Alkins to Arizona.
