Five-star center Lewis Uvwo announced his commitment to the Providence College men's basketball program on Wednesday, choosing the Friars over fellow finalists Kentucky and Baylor.
The 7-foot recruit, ranked among the top prospects in the 2026 class, revealed his decision via social media, ending a recruitment that drew significant attention from major programs.
Providence head coach Kim English and his staff secured a major victory in the recruiting battle, adding a potential immediate impact player to their frontcourt.
Uvwo's commitment was first reported by USA TODAY's Ansley Gavlak on October 28, 2026.
