TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — The Arizona Men's Basketball team has landed a five-star commit in guard Brayden Burries, according to the high school senior's announcement Wednesday morning on ESPN.
Burries is the No. 11 prospect on this year's ESPN 100. The Southern California shooting guard from Eleanor Roosevelt High School cited his trust in Arizona Basketball Head Coach Tommy Lloyd as his main reason to choose to commit to the Wildcats.

"The key factor was just the trust with Coach Lloyd and the staff, you know, he's been on me for about three years now and I just felt like he lets his guards play, and his play style...I feel like it fits me perfectly," Burries said in his SportsCenter announcement.
"He's going to get the best out of me," Burries said.
