Indiana basketball continued its look to the future on Friday, extending a scholarship offer to class of 2026 four-star center Collins Onyejiaka.

Onyejiaka, a 6-foot-10, 270-pound junior at The Newman School in Boston, announced the offer on social media. He is originally from Edo, Nigeria, and is ranked No. 110 nationally in the 2026 class by On3. He also ranks as the No. 3 player in Massachusetts.

A developing big man with size and mobility, Onyejiaka averaged 9.5 points, 7.9 rebounds and 2.7 blocks per game this past season. He plays AAU basketball for Team New England on the Made Hoops Circuit.

“Collins Onyejiaka is a big 6-foot-10. He has long arms and he showed mobility throughout the weekend,” On3 national recruiting analyst Jamie Shaw wrote in a scouting report last year. “Still new to the game, he tracked the ball well and attacked the glass both in his area and on the offensive end… He is an intriguing prospect.”
