Fast-rising four-star senior guard Junior County told ESPN that he has committed to UConn.

County, one of the top-five shooting guards in the 2026 class, chose the Huskies over a final list that also included Arizona, Indiana, Maryland and Purdue.

After taking trips to each of his other finalists, County took his final visit to UConn last weekend, when the Huskies made their final pitch and secured his commitment.

"It was the feeling I got while watching practice, talking to [coach Dan] Hurley and going around campus," County told ESPN on Thursday.
