The true center has been one of the more high upside prospects coming out of the JUCO level. He has only been in the United States since August of 2024. School such as Auburn, North Texas, Ohio, UIC, and many other Division 1 programs have been involved.
He is reported set to visit Auburn on Monday. No other visits have been scheduled for Opurum as of yet. He would be a part of the 2025 class.
As of right now, Indiana basketball only has one incoming freshman in four-star forward Trent Sisley.
