Providence finds its Fortune

Josh Fortune (Hampton, Va./Kecoughtan), a 6-foot-5 swingman from the Class of 2012, committed to Providence while on an unofficial visit late last month. I got the chance to watch Fortune play late in July as he helped Boo Williams U16 squad to a top five finish at AAU nationals. He made a quick name for himself that week, dropping 36 points on a talented Southern Kings squad and showing constant signs of his potential with an athletic frame and a good 3-point shooting stroke. Perhaps most impressive was the fact he was still only 15 years old at the time. Obviously, Providence was impressed as well.
