Kamari Murphy has verbally committed to Oklahoma State, choosing the Big 12 school over Florida, Miami, Connecticut, Auburn and Louisville.

“He felt comfortable with the coaching staff and felt that he could come in and play right away and be a factor,” said Dana Dingle, Murphy’s AAU coach with the Long Island Lightning.

Murphy will spend a postgraduate year at IMG Academy.

The 6-foot-8 power forward out of Brooklyn is one of the top-50 recruits of the 2012 class at the position.

Kuran Iverson, a top-25 prospect of the Class of 2013, has reduced his list of schools considered.

Syracuse, Kentucky, Louisville, Connecticut, Florida and Arizona are on his new list.

Andre Drummond will play for Connecticut this season. 

Drummond was expected to attend a prep school in Massachusetts this season, but will instead help Connecticut defend their 2011 National Championship.

Drummond was rated as the No. 2 player in the class of 2012 and is widely considered one of the top NBA prospects in the world.

Kris Dunn has made a verbal commitment to play at Providence while on an unofficial visit.

Dunn, a 6-foot-3 shooting guard, chose Providence over Connecticut, Pitt, Georgetown and Louisville.

Dunn averaged 26.5 points, 10 rebounds, five steals and five assists per game last season.

Brice Johnson has reduced his list of college choices down to eight.

Johnson is considering South Carolina, Clemson, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Ohio State, Florida, Connecticut and Baylor.

North Carolina and North Carolina State will host unofficial visits next weekend.

Archie Goodwin has cut his list of school from 10 to eight.

“I cut Florida [and] Louisville, and Missouri is still in there, so you could say it’s eight,” Goodwin, who scored a game-high 23 points Sunday to help Team USA Midwest win the Nike Global Challenge, said Friday afternoon. “I basically just cut Florida and Louisville.”

Goodwin is now considering Arkansas, Baylor, Georgetown, Kentucky, Kansas, Memphis, Missouri and Connecticut.

Goodwin said he will not base his decision based on what others do.

“I’m not going to commit after anybody,” he said.

He added: “It just depends on if those guys are followers are not, or if they’re real cool with a guy who committed or if they play well with them, so it just depends on what goes on after that.”

Andre Drummond is not expected to make a decision on where he will play college basketball until the spring, but he has narrowed his list to Connecticut, Kentucky, Georgetown, Louisville and West Virginia.

Drummond is a consensus top-two player in the incoming class of 2012.

Drummond could, however, turn professional for the 2012 NBA Draft.

“My plans for the immediate future are to continue to focus on academics and basketball, and to prepare myself for the future rigors I will be facing on the court and in life,” Drummond said in a release to Scout.com. “My decision beyond this coming year will not be made before next spring. Right now I am looking forward to getting to WMA, meeting my teammates and fellow students, and focusing on both academics and basketball.”

Anthony Bennett, who was an All-Tournament selection at last weekend's Nike Global Challenge, has narrowed his list of schools.

The Canadian forward is considering Kentucky, West Virginia, Connecticut, Oregon, Pittsburgh, Florida, Missouri, Ohio State, UNLV and Washington.
