5-star forward Joson Sanon picks Arizona, re-classifies

Joson Sanon commits to Arizona this week.

Arizona landed another elite player on Wednesday with a verbal from small forward Joson Sanon.

In the process of committing to Arizona, Sanon also re-classified back to the class of 2024. Sanon had originally been a part of the class before he re-classified to the class of 2025.

The move now means that Sanon can join the Arizona program this summer.

A 6-foot-5 small forward from Vermont Academy (Saxtons River, Vermont), Sanon is the No. 54 player in the nation according to 247Sports.

In addition to Arizona, he also held offers from UConn, Georgia Tech, Georgetown, Indiana (where he took a mid-December visit), Kansas, Kentucky, and Louisville, among others.

For what it is worth, Sanon’s commitment video? Worth the watch:

 

Sanon joins a stacked Arizona class that features several other highly-ranked commits. Leading the class is Carter Bryant, a power forward from California.

Bryant is ranked the No. 10 player in the 2024 class in the USA Today High School Sports top 10.
