Five-star power forward Simi Shittu announced his commitment to Vanderbilt on Wednesday.

Shittu is ranked as the No. 6 overall recruit on ESPN's Top 100 for the 2018 recruit class.

Earlier this month, five-star point guard Darius Garland also committed to Vanderbilt, giving the Commodores two recruits within the top 11; both are the No. 2 recruits at their respective position. At Sunday's National Prep Showcase, Shittu revealed that Garland had been actively recruiting him to the program, according to Scout's Evan Daniels.

A native of Burlington, Canada, Shittu is completing his senior year at Vermont Academy.
