Baldwin Jr., ranked as the No. 4 player in the country by the 247Sports Composite, made it official during a press conference at Sussex Hamilton High School that he would spurn Duke, Georgetown and nearly every other major program in the country to play for the Panthers.

The 6-foot-9, 190-pound Baldwin Jr. is ranked as the No. 1 player in the state and the No. 1 small forward in the country. He is the highest-rated player in the state of Wisconsin during the online rankings era, which dates back to the early 2000s.

A big day for @UWM and @MKE_MBB
