French guard Adama Bal commits to Arizona

The Arizona Wildcats have added more international flair to their roster, landing a commitment from French guard Adama Bal on Tuesday, according to ESPN’s Jonathan Givony.

The 6-foot-6, 180-pound swingman attends French sports institute (INSEP) in Paris, the same program that Gonzaga guard Joel Ayayi, Tommy Lloyd’s former player, came out of. Givony says Bal is considered “one of the most promising European prospects committing to the college route.”

“Coach Tommy Lloyd and his staff were the key,” Bal told ESPN. “He recruited me at Gonzaga and offered me the first day on the job at Arizona.
