Boston College has landed a pledge from 6-foot-8 small forward Vin Baker Jr., the son of the former NBA standout.
A senior at Hamden Hall (Conn.) Country Day School, Baker Jr. averaged 16.5 points, 7 rebounds, and 2 assists this past season.
“I feel that Boston College is the best place for me to grow as a player and student,” Baker told Clevis Murray of The Boston Globe. “Coach [Jim] Christian and [assistant] coach [Scott] Spinelli told me the things that they were going to do for me to turn me into the best player that I can be, and that’s what I need, a supportive system.
