Carter, originally from Bishop Kearney High School in Rochester, New York, signed with Dayton last November. He re-entered recruitment after Flyers coach Archie Miller accepted the head coaching job at Indiana.
The Scout.com 4-star recruit joins Garfield High School guard Jaylen Nowell in the 2017 Washington recruiting class. Hopkins also got commitments from guards Nate Pryor from West Seattle and Michael Carter III who graduated from O’Dea in 2016.
