"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Antonio&amp;nbsp;Blakeney, a heralded shooting guard from Oak Ridge High School in Orlando, Fla.,&amp;nbsp;announced&amp;nbsp;on Friday that he has committed to&amp;nbsp;LSU.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Blakeney&amp;nbsp;chose&amp;nbsp;the Tigers over&amp;nbsp;Kentucky&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;Missouri&amp;nbsp;on&amp;nbsp;ESPNU.&amp;nbsp;Blakeney&amp;nbsp;is the No. 13 prospect in the class of 2015, according to the recruiting website Rivals.com. He is averaging 32.7 points and 6.7 rebounds in his senior season, according to&amp;nbsp;MaxPreps.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The 6-foot-3, 180-pound&amp;nbsp;Blakeney&amp;nbsp;committed to&amp;nbsp;Louisville&amp;nbsp;in September but renounced his pledge less than two weeks later.&amp;nbsp;Small forward Ben Simmons, the No. 1 player in the same class, signed with the Tigers in November after committing last October.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;DAVIS: Weekend Picks&lt;/strong&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Blakeney&amp;nbsp;and Simmons played together as members of the Each 1 Teach 1 program.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\"I think I can be an elite player to come into the program and help out right away,\"&amp;nbsp;Blakeney&amp;nbsp;said, according to Rivals.com. \"With me and Ben and all of the other elite players they already have we can make things happen. It's no secret that talent makes a program and coach Jones knows how to use all of that talent the right way.\"\u200B\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;LSU has not qualified for the NCAA tournament since 2009. The Tigers are 10-2 this season.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;\u2022 WINN: Power Rankings&lt;/strong&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
