Oregon head coach Dana Altman and his staff got some huge news, as they added 5-star center N’Faly Dante to their roster. The talented big man committed to the Ducks over Kentucky.
Dante was originally a member of 2020 class. However, he has decided to reclassify and join the Ducks this season. This is very big news for Oregon. This will put them as one of the early favorites to win the PAC-12. Additionally, this also gives the Ducks a Top 5 recruiting class for 2019.
N’Faly is not the only big name recruit coming in to play for Oregon this season. The Ducks also have 5-star power forward CJ Walker to pair up with Dante in the front court. Dante and Walker are both going make major impacts this season. With star guard Payton Pritchard returning for his senior season, Oregon will not only be a top 25 team this season, but they are now put in the conversation as national title contenders.
