By ADAM ZAGORIA

Illinois has landed a pledge from 3-star forward Landon Davis.

The 6-foot-8 forward from Northwest (IA) chose Brad Underwood’s club over Drake, he told ZAGSBLOG.com.

“I think there I can be my best possible basketball self and they believe they are bringing someone who can connect a team and make others better,” he told ZAGSBLOG.

“My skill set is ability to pass and guard multiple positions.”
