From Pittsburgh, PA welcome 6’11 James Ellis to Langston University Men's Basketball
We are extremely excited about James! You do not find many forwards at any level with the skill or athleticism that he possesses! He’s a versatile forward that can score both inside & out along with an ability to dominate the glass. We just got a lot better! #LangstonTough #LsUp https://t.co/xDMHa6J2k3
