While no one was worried about him wavering since his commitment on March 7, the days since National Signing Day have been a different story. Arizona fans have held their breath, but now they can let out a sigh of relief knowing that their player is locked in and not going anywhere.

In Alkins, the Wildcats get a 6-foot-5, 210 pound bruising guard out of New York who will bring toughness on defense and athleticism in the open court to a team that lacked both last year.
