The Marquette Golden Eagles have landed a significant boost to their 2026 class with the verbal commitment of Alex Egbuonu, the No. 74 overall recruit in the country from Lawrence Academy in Groton, MA.
At 6-6, 220 lbs , small forward, Egbuonu blends physicality, length and skill in a way that stands out. He has the strength to finish through contact, handles the ball confidently, and can stretch the floor with a three-point shot, giving Marquette a versatile player capable of impacting both ends.
This is a smart addition for Marquette. Egbuonu’s combination of size, toughness and shooting ability fits well into their system. He may not immediately dominate, but his upside is high—and this commitment positions him as a key contributor in the years ahead.
