The Missouri basketball program once recruited a legend from Queens, N.Y. More than 30 years later, the Tigers have landed another player from the New York City borough.
For the second time this week, Cuonzo Martin has added a piece to his pivotal 2021 recruiting class. Sean Durugordon, a three-star 6-foot-6 wing from Queens, committed to the Tigers on Wednesday, giving Martin two pledges this week. Kaleb Brown, a guard from Huntsville, Ala., committed to Mizzou on Monday.
If Durugordon is half as good as the last Mizzou player from Queens - all-time scoring leader Derrick Chievous - then Martin will have added a valuable piece to the perimeter.
