James Bell the 6'5" wing from Montverde Academy in Orlando has signed his National Letter of Intent to play basketball at Villanova.
The very versatile and extremely athletic Bell is ranked #73 by Scout, #76 by Rivals, and #43 by ESPN in the Class of 2010.
Bell is "an explosive athlete who attacks the rim with power" who should fit into Jay Wright's offensive schemes, especially if he develops a mid-range jumper.
He committed to Jay Wright on July 31, 2008.
