Now, with commitments secured, these stars are poised to make a giant splash in college basketball. Here’s a rundown of the 10 biggest names and where they’re going.
The Top 10 Women’s Basketball Recruits
1. Aaliyah Chavez, Oklahoma
Texas-born Aaliyah Chavez earned her ranking as the No. 1 overall prospect. She surely did it by dominating games with her scoring, passing, and leadership. Her label as an elite guard wasn’t smoke and mirrors.
She selected the University of Oklahoma over some of the nation’s best programs. Chavez makes the Sooners a legitimate national contender.
2. Sienna Betts, UCLA
Standing 6’3″, Sienna Betts adds size, skill, and a polished inside-out scoring to the court. She’s a top rebounder and defender, and her offense has improved annually.
Betts’ commitment to UCLA ensures she’ll have the opportunity to play with her sister, Lauren Betts. In an interview, she said, “Playing with Sienna has always been a dream. Our chemistry on the court is unparalleled.”
3. Jasmine “Jazzy” Davidson, USC
Jasmine Davidson, nicknamed “Jazzy,” became one of the most dynamic two-way guards in the nation. At 6’2″, she leverages her size and instincts to control both sides of the court. She committed to USC, drawn to the program’s momentum and the chance to be a part of something special.
“Jazzy’s commitment represents a bright future for our program,” said head coach Lindsay Gottlieb.
4. Agot Makeer, South Carolina
Agot Makeer made headlines globally for her performance with Canada during the FIBA U17 World Cup. Standing at 6’1″, her combination of perimeter skills and defensive flexibility makes her an ideal addition to Dawn Staley’s South Carolina team.
