Four-star big man Doryan Onwuchekwa has committed to Georgia Tech, he told On3.

The 6-foot-10, 235-pound center out of Faith Family Academy in Dallas was originally signed with Colorado, but requested to be released from his National Letter of Intent in February.

Onwuchekwa spoke to On3 about his decision to choose head coach Damon Stoudamire and the Yellow Jackets the second time around.

“I chose Georgia Tech because they align with my passion for the sport and its academic reputation is impressive, promising a solid foundation for my future.”

According to the On3 Industry Rankings, Onwuchekwa is the No. 105 overall prospect in the 2024 cycle. He’s also the No. 15 center prospect and the No. 7 player in Texas. The On3 Industry Ranking is a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Onwuchekwa Scouting Report

“Doryan Onwuchekwa has a big frame and broad shoulders with solid length. Has good hands – albeit small – and touch with consistent range. Can stretch the floor out to beyond the arc, off the catch, and he puts it on the deck under control. He can drift and get too perimeter-oriented at times. When he plays close to the basket, he is a good area rebounder and a good outlet passer. He has range on catch-and-shoot threes. Has some upside to slide his feet on defense. He is still figuring out his game, but the consistency continues to become more and more frequent.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
