Adding to an already stellar recruiting class, Arizona Basketball has received a commitment from 2024 four-star Center, Emmanuel Stephen. 

There have arguably been no hotter teams on the recruiting trail the past several months than Arizona Basketball.

Just months after securing commitments from Jamari Phillips and Carter Bryant, Arizona made more news on Tuesday as the Wildcats picked up a commitment from four-star big man, Emmanuel Stephen.

Breaking the news via social media, Emmanuel picked the Wildcats despite reportedly receiving interest from Kansas, Baylor, LSU, Michigan, and Arizona State among several others.

Hailing from Dream City Christian in Glendale, AZ, Emmanuel Stephen becomes the third commitment for Arizona Basketball for the class of 2024.

As Tommy Lloyd continues to build his reputation as a head coach in college basketball, more players are taking notice of what is brewing in Tucson.

Over the past two seasons, the Wildcats have had one of the best offenses in college basketball, so naturally, you are starting to see several talented players beginning to seriously look at the Wildcats again.

With Emmanuel, he becomes the third commitment in the recruiting class for 2024, and he is a huge addition to the Wildcats!

Overall, he is considered to be one of the best post players in the country, and is easily one of the best players in the state of Arizona as he hails from the talented Dream City Christian program.

Joining Arizona, Emmanuel brings great size and length to a team that could use a bit more size, depth, and length.

His offense may still be a bit of a work in progress; however, the talent is there, and overall, he is a hard worker on and off the court.

And with time, he will become a good offensive player much like Christian Koloko, but for now, he should be a solid defensive presence for the Cats.

Overall, Arizona is making great progress in the recruiting class for 2024, and with Emmanuel on board as well, Tommy and the Wildcats have put together a solid core!

Just take a look at Arizona’s latest commitment!
