Pittsburgh has landed a commitment from Rhode Island transfer Ishmael Leggett.
The 6-foot-3 Maryland native averaged 16.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists last season with the Rams while shooting 39% and 32% from deep.
He initially committed to Rhode Island in 2019 over UNC-Charlotte and had offers from DePaul, Illinois and South Florida.
“Ish is an incredible basketball player, young man, and teammate,” St. John’s College High School coach Pat Behan said then. “His ability to get in the paint is elite, and he has a knack for finishing in a variety of ways. He’s very unselfish and has a great basketball IQ. He is a very efficient shooter and scorer. He’s a great defender that plays every possession like the last. More than anything, he’s extremely tough-minded.”
