Utah's basketball team landed their final recruit for their upcoming class with Dominque Lee, a small forward out of Berkeley, Calif., committing to the Utes.
The 6-foot-3, 190-pounder has the tough, physical nature that has come to typify players under Utah coach Jim Boylen.
Lee joins J.J. O'Brien, a small forward out of Alta Loma, Calif., and Preston Guiot out of Missouri in the class.
Lee's coach at St. Mary's, Manny Nodar, said Lee will take some time to develop but could be a big player for the Utes as he refines his game.
"He's not at the same level, but his game has been compared to Clyde Drexler's," Nodar said. "It looks ugly, but he gets it done. He attacks the basket hard and he is hard to defend."
Nodar had offers from San Jose State and Santa Clara and had drawn interest from other local schools, Nodar said. However, Lee was sold on the Utes after his recent visit.
"You could tell when I asked him how it went, he had a big smile on his face," Nodar said. "With his style, he fits in there the best of all the schools that were looking at him."
The early signing period is Nov. 11-18.
