He currently attends Hamilton Heights Christian Academy in Chattanooga and is considered one of the top rising centers in the entire 2019 class.
Jitoboh will likely become a high priority for Mike Anderson and company given the junior’s overall skill set and the possibility of having to replace Daniel Gafford after next season.
Gafford chose to forgo the NBA draft and return to Fayetteville for his sophomore season.
Arkansas already has one commitment in next year’s group, as Little Rock point guard Justice Hill committed to the school back in 2016.
The Razorbacks finished 23-12 overall this past season and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament before losing to Butler.
