OSU transfer Matthew Alexander-Moncrieffe commits to Georgia

Oklahoma State transfer Matthew Alexander-Moncrieffe has committed to Georgia, he tells On3.

The 6-foot-7 forward averaged 4.2 points and 3.9 rebounds last season for the Cowboys. During the 2020-21 season, he averaged slightly higher numbers at 9.0 points per game, while grabbing 5.3 rebounds.

“Coach (Mike) White is one of the best minds in college basketball,” Moncrieffe said to On3. “He sold me on a plan to win first and for me to achieve a lot of my individual goals and develop my game to play at the next level.”

The Toronto, Ontario native is a former four-star recruit and ranked 83rd overall in the On3 Consensus. He was a part of the class of 2020 class that also featured the future No. 1 NBA draft pick, Cade Cunningham.

Current Georgia assistant Erik Pastrana recruited Moncrieffe to the Cowboys during his time at OSU.

Moncrieffe is the Bulldogs’ third commitment via the transfer portal, following Alabama’s Jusaun Holt and Bradley’s Terry Roberts.

Coming out of high school, Moncrieffe ultimately chose Oklahoma State over Seton Hall and Georgetown but also received offers from Vanderbilt, Arizona State, Florida, and others.
