Brad Underwood added another member to his 2018 class on Tuesday afternoon when Anthony Higgs committed, according to 247 Sports.
Higgs announced that he received an offer from Illinois last Monday, and about one week later he is committed.
Higgs is a 6-foot-8 small forward from Perry Hall in Nottingham, Maryland. Originally committed to Ole Miss, he received a release from his commitment after a coaching change in March.
He is ranked at the 13th best 2018 prospect in Maryland, and the Illini can use anyone who is raw at this point — added bonus for having been committed once to a big SEC school.
