Indiana landed its first commitment in the class of 2023 on Friday afternoon with Newton High School (Ga.) guard Jakai Newton.

Newton, a 6-foot-3 combo guard, chose the Hoosiers over offers from Alabama, Auburn, Cincinnati, Clemson, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Ole Miss, Vanderbilt and Xavier.

The Georgia native is ranked as the No. 43 player nationally in the 2023 class by Rivals.com.

Inside the Hall has compiled more than three minutes of highlights of Newton from July when he starred for Atlanta Xpress on the Under Armour Association circuit.
