Florida lands 5-star forward Scottie Lewis

Florida has landed its third top-35 recruit for 2019, as five-star forward Scottie Lewis has officially announced his commitment to the Gators on Tuesday, according to ESPN's Adam Finkelstein.

Lewis is ranked No. 13 on ESPN's top 100 recruits for 2019 and joins forces with No. 30 Tre Mann and No. 35 Omar Payne.

Florida has been heavily recruiting Lewis for several years, making a strong impression on the highly-touted forward.

"They've known me since I was 15 years old and we've been able to build that bond, off the court as much as on," Lewis said. "I trust them and think I can make an immediate impact. They know how hard I work and that I am a trendsetter. They really know my game down to a tee and exactly how to use me."
