Quadir Copeland, a 6-foot-6 combo guard, has committed to Syracuse basketball for the class of 2022, he tells On3.

Copeland is the Orange’s third commitment in the class, following four-star small forward’s Justin Taylor and Kamari Lands. The Syracuse Orange have now made a case for a top-10 ranked recruiting class.

Copeland plays for Life Center Academy (N.J.) High School. He chose the Orange over Oklahoma State, Oregon, DePaul, Miami, Maryland, among others.
