The past two weeks have been one of the best stretches of Michigan State Basketball head coach Tom Izzo’s career in terms of recruiting. In less than two weeks, Izzo received commitments from 5-star Emoni Bates and another 5-star in Max Christie. Now, he looks to be close to adding a 4-star to an already impressive recruiting run. According to Jake Weingarten of Stockrisers, MSU is expected to virtually meet with 4-star power forward James Graham III sometime next week.
The Spartans already offered Graham about a month ago, so this meeting could be substantial as Izzo looks to round out his 2021 recruiting class. According to Weingarten, Graham will also meet with Archie Miller of Indiana.
Graham is 247Sports‘ No. 10 ranked small forward in the 2021 class and the No. 56 ranked player overall. He currently plays for Nicolet High School in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
It’s still unclear if Emoni Bates will be a 2021 or 2022 recruit, but a class of Max Christie, Pierre Brooks, and James Graham, even without Bates, is an incredible recruiting win for Izzo.
