CHAMPAIGN — The Illinois men's basketball team continues to get bigger, both in size and in numbers.
Belgian forward Benjamin Bosmans-Verdonk announced Saturday on Instagram that he has signed with the Illini, making him the third member of Illinois' 2019 class.
The 6-foot-7, 215-pound addition joins 7-foot freshman Kofi Cockburn — who arrived on campus last week — and big man Bernard Kouma, who signed with Illinois on May 30 after some anticipation.
"A big (shoutout) goes to my teammates, coaches and everyone else that played a part in my personal development," Bosmans-Verdonk said in an Instagram post.
