Kuran Iverson, a 6-foot-9 swingman out of Fishburne Military Academy in Virginia, made a verbal commitment to Memphis.

Iverson, ranked as a top-50 prospect in the 2013 class, chose the Tigers over UConn and Florida.

Devin Williams has trimmed his list of schools to UCLA, Memphis, North Carolina State, Ohio State, and West Virginia.

 The 6-foot-8 Williams eliminated Xavier from consideration.

Williams has scheduled visits to West Virginia (Sept. 27), UCLA (Oct. 6) and Memphis (Oct.19).

RaShawn Powell, a 6-foot, 170-pound guard out of Orlando (Fla.) Dr. Phillips High School, orally committed to Memphis after an in-home visit from Tigers coach Josh Pastner.

"(Pastner) came in there confident. He just told the truth. He was being real about everything and I liked that," Powell said. "I can go there, do what he says and I think we can do some big things at Memphis.

"They've got Damon Stoudamire on the sideline, and I just feel like if I go there I can accomplish my dream of making it to the league."

A top-100 prospect, Powell picked the Tigers over Alabama and Illinois.

Kendrick Nunn has committed to John Groce and Illinois over Marquette, Memphis and Ohio State.

Nunn is a 6-foot-2 shooting guard from Simeon High School of Chicago, the same school as Jabari Parker.

Nunn is rated No. 56 in the ESPN 100.

"It means for Illinois now they have secured a commitment from a high-level player not only from the state of Illinois, but the city of Chicago," ESPN recruiting coordinator Reggie Rankin said. "I think that possibly can open doors for future players. I think it's a great fit for Nunn because he'll be terrific in Groce's style of play. He'll be able to attack on the break, slash in the halfcourt and play on and away from ball screens. I think it's just a win-win situation for both of them."

Kendrick Nunn is set to visit Illinois this weekend, his father, Melvin Nunn, confirmed.

"It was the way the schedule best fit in," the elder Nunn said, "and it's our state school."

Kendrick, a standout guard at Chicago Simeon, plans to visit Memphis from Sept. 21-23, UCLA from Sept. 28-30, Ohio State from Oct. 5-7 and Marquette from Oct. 12-14.

"It's going to be maybe days after his last visit, probably mid-October by that third week of October," Melvin said of plans to announce his son's college decision. "But we want to be completely done and signed in November."

Adonis Thomas, projected by some as a lottery choice in the 2013 NBA draft, has gained thirty pounds since the start of last season.

The 6-foot-7 forward, who is expected to play the majority of his minutes on the wing, went from 222 pounds to 252.

Josh Pastner downplayed any concern about Thomas' weight, adding he expects him to be somewhere in the 235-238 range by the time the season begins.

"I think he looks good," Pastner said. "He's gonna be just fine."

Dezmine Wells has decided to enroll at Maryland following his expulsion at Xavier.

Wells was an all-Atlantic 10 rookie selection.

"The last couple of weeks have been the toughest time in my life for my family and I," Wells said in a release. "I've learned that it is a major responsibility that comes with being a student-athlete at all times. I'm thankful God has blessed me with a second opportunity to continue my education."

Wells visited Kentucky, Memphis, Maryland and Oregon from Thursday to Monday.

Wells will petition to enroll immediately at Maryland.

Dez Wells has narrowed his transfer options down to Maryland, Oregon and Memphis and plans to decide within the next 48 hours, according to a source.

“I credit Maryland, they really got his spirits up,” the source said. “It was a blessing to me to hear. It started out a rough week for him. He went through Kentucky, Memphis, but Maryland was the first time I heard the excitement back in his voice.”

Wells may be leaning toward the Terrapins.

“Just by his excitement,” the source said. “If I had to bet the house on it, I would be betting in the blind, I would have to say, my gut, I know how he felt, sounds like possibly Maryland.”
