Sean Obi found his landing spot.

Obi has made his decision.

So, who will the oft-injured Blue Devil play for next season? He's headed to Maryland, according to multiple reports.

Obi began his collegiate career at Rice, where he averaged 11.4 points and 9.3 rebounds per game for the Owls as a freshman. Coach K and company recruited the Rice standout to Duke, where he sat out during the 2014-15 season, per NCAA rules.

Obi recalled his time with the Blue Devils when he announced his transfer in March:

“I have loved my time at Duke,” Obi said. ���I’ve struggled with a few injuries but I’ve grown as both a man and a player in this program. The relationships I’ve made here will last a lifetime and I will be extremely proud to call myself a Duke graduate. I’m feeling great physically now and I’m excited to take the next step in my career.”

If he can stay healthy, Obi gives the Terrapins some much-needed help on the boards. He's immediately eligible.
