Johann Grunloh commits to Virginia Cavaliers

Virginia is in the middle of a roster rebuild for next season ahead of their debut year under Ryan Odom. The latest addition to it this morning is now one of their biggest yet from overseas.

Johann Grunloh, a top international prospect, has committed to play for the Cavaliers. That comes per reports by ESPN’s Jonathan Givony on Monday.

Johann Grunloh ranks as the 2nd-best shot-blocker in the German BBL, while hitting 32 3s in 28 games, an intriguing combination for a 19-year-old who also brings outstanding energy running the floor, crashing the glass, and switching on the perimeter with intensity and timing. https://t.co/94PZBeJBnb pic.twitter.com/iLvBAkDgvf
