Arizona Basketball

August 18

Arizona has just landed Nick Johnson (6-2, 175) from Henderson, NV. He is a 4 star Shooting Guard and #45 overall (Rivals.com). This is a great get for us and now we just need a big man or another guard and we should be good. We already have Sidiki Johnson (6-8, 220) who is a 4 star Power Forward and #67 overall (Rivals.com).
Some of our targets:
Quinn Cook PG: Arizona, Duke, Georgetown, North Carolina, Rutgers, St.John's, UCLA
Josiah Turner PG: Arizona (In home visit 9/9, official visit 9/17), Kansas (In home 9/13, official 10/15)
Damian Leonard SG: Arizona, Oklahoma State, South Carolina
Norman Powell SG: Arizona, San Diego State, UCLA
