Darius Wabbington, the No. 9 overall prospect on the ESPN 100 for 2027, committed to Indiana, he announced Tuesday on social media.
The five-star recruit chose the Hoosiers over Arizona and Illinois. Earlier this year, Wabbington was on Team USA's silver-medal squad at the FIBA U18 AmeriCup.
Wabbington ranks as the No. 2 center in next year's class, making him Indiana's highest-rated center since ESPN began its recruiting database in 2007, according to ESPN's Jeff Borzello.
The 6-foot-10 big man joins four-star guard Chase Branham in the school's 2027 recruiting class.
The Hoosiers went 18-14 last season in their first year under Darian DeVries. Indiana has missed three straight NCAA Tournaments.
