South Shore point guard Terrence Samuel, one of the top seniors in New York City, verbally committed to Connecticut yesterday afternoon, he told The Post. The 6-foot-4 floor general picked Jim Calhoun’s program over Rhode Island, Dayton, Tennessee, Pittsburgh and Temple.
Samuel will join AAU teammate Kentan Facey of the New Rens. Facey, a 6-foot-9 forward from Long Island Lutheran, committed back in August.
