Blake Hinson, a 3-star forward in the 2018 recruiting class, has officially committed to Ole Miss.
Hinson announced the commitment via Twitter on Saturday after also considering Missouri, Seton Hall, and Washington State.
The 6-7 combo forward visited Columbia earlier in the week and took his official visit to Ole Miss back in early April.

According to 247Sports, Hinson is rated as the top player in Kansas and the No. 26 overall power forward in the 2018 class.
He was originally a part of the next year’s class, but announced on March 20 that he would be reclassifying into the 2018 class.
Hinson becomes the fourth player to join Ole Miss in this year’s group, which should give new head coach Kermit Davis a solid nucleus to work with heading into his first season in Oxford.
Anthony Higgs and Brian Halums have already signed, and Georgia native KJ Buffen committed to the school earlier this week.
The Rebels finished 12-20 overall this past season, with former coach Andy Kennedy resigning from his position after 12 seasons with the program.
