Arizona men’s basketball officially announced the commitment of Estonian big man Henri Veesaar Wednesday, the UA’s third addition to the 2022 recruiting class.
As of a few weeks ago, not much was publicly known about Veesaar, who plays for European powerhouse Real Madrid in Spain. Unless you’re an international basketball junkie or rabid follower of Arizona recruiting, you’d probably never heard of him yourself.
What’s clear is that the 7-foot, 207-pound 18-year old should significantly improve Arizona’s depth inside following the departure of Christian Koloko to the NBA Draft.
Koloko is fully intent on remaining in the NBA Draft, as Stadium’s Jeff Goodman reported.
