Five-star forward Paolo Banchero announced Saturday that he is adding the Arizona Wildcats to his list of finalists.
The 6-foot-8 Seattle native is also considering Baylor, Duke, Georgetown, Gonzaga, Kentucky, Memphis, North Carolina, Tennessee and Washington.
He has taken official visits to Gonzaga, Tennessee, Duke, Kentucky, and North Carolina. Banchero is the No. 4 player in the 2021 class, according to 247Sports composite rankings. He flirted with the idea of reclassifying to 2020 but decided against it.
Here is what his 247Sports scouting report says:
Respectable size for post with decent length, wide shoulders and a very good frame.
