Barring an unforeseen change of events, former Rainier Beach High star Sam Cunliffe hopes to join the Washington men’s basketball team.
At least that’s what he expects.
But the well-traveled Cunliffe, who has played at Kansas and Arizona State, knows better than anyone that the best laid plans can go awry.
So the 6-foot-6 small forward tempered his enthusiasm while talking about a courtship with his hometown Huskies.
“Washington is my first choice,” Cunliffe said told the Seattle Times on Sunday. “If I can make it work, I will.”
Jon Rothstein at CBS Sports reported Cunliffe has also received interest from Grand Canyon, Maryland and Minnesota.
