Pitt Hosting 2026 4-Star Forward on Official Visit

Rivals has the 6-foot-9 and 200-pound forward listed as a four-star with a 94.39 rating. Rivals also gives the Panthers a 21.6% chance to land Foster, second behind Villanova with a 24.7% chance. He is also ranked as the No. 6 player out of Florida, the No. 7 power forward in the class and the No. 45 nationally.

The 247Sports Composite also has Foster listed as a four-star and ranks him as the No. 8 from Florida, the No. 8 power forward in the class and the No. 43 player nationally.

Foster plays for Team Melo in the Nike EYBL U16 Circuit, the same team former Pitt guard and current Portland Trail Blazers guard Bub Carrington played for. Foster also shares the court with four-star small forward Ethan Mgbako, whom the Panthers hosted in June on an official visit.

Mgbako plays high school ball at Oak Hill Academy in Roselle, N.J. Rivals favors Pitt to land the 6-foot-6 small forward with a 48.1% chance.

Foster hails from Baltimore, Md., like Carrington, and received his offer from Pitt on July 14. He played at Edmondson-Westside High School before transferring to IMG Academy in Florida ahead of his junior season.

While at Edmondson-Westside, Foster helped his team win the Baltimore City Title and two Maryland Class 1A state titles. His team finished 26-2 in the 2023-24 season. Last summer, Foster averaged 12.4 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 26.7 minutes per game for Team Melo.

Foster also holds offers from Penn State, West Virginia, Virginia Tech, Providence, Illinois, Florida State, Mississippi State, Arkansas and Washington, but has yet to schedule a visit with any of those programs.
