Alabama MBB lands commitment from 2024 5-star PF Aiden Sherrell

The Alabama men’s basketball team added its first commitment in the 2024 recruiting class on Tuesday. 2024 five-star power forward Aiden Sherrell announced his commitment to Alabama via X; formerly known as Twitter.

The Alabama men’s basketball program received its first commitment in the 2024 recruiting class from five-star power forward Aiden Sherrell. Sherrell committed to the Crimson Tide on Tuesday afternoon.

Sherrell was originally scheduled to reveal his commitment on Aug. 13 but postponed his decision to a later date. After re-evaluating his options, it was the Crimson Tide that stood out the most.

In an interview with On3’s Joe Tipton had the following to say about his decision to commit to the Crimson Tide:

“I chose Alabama because I fit their playstyle perfectly and I believe that they will help get me to the next level and develop me into the player I want to be,” Sherrell said.”

Sherrell is the fifth-highest ranked recruit that Alabama has landed, according to 247Sports’ rankings.

At 6-foot-11 and 200 pounds, Sherrell can play multiple positions at the college level. He is an elite rebounder and rim protector. Not to mention, he can knock down mid-range jumpers as well. His style of play should bode well in Alabama’s offensive system.

Roll Tide Wire breaks down Aiden Sherrell’s recruiting profile.

MSU basketball listed as finalist for top 35, 4-star C Aiden Sherrell

4-star C Aiden Sherrell will announce his college destination on August 13

Michigan State basketball is a finalist for one of the top center prospects in the 2024 cycle.

Four-star center Aiden Sherrell has listed Michigan State as one of his five finalists with an expected commitment date of August 13. The other finalists for Sherrell are Alabama, Ohio State, Texas and Oklahoma.

Sherrell ranks as the No. 35 overall prospect in 247Sports’ composite rankings for the 2024 class. He’s also listed as the No. 6 center in the class.

There are currently no projections on 247Sports for where Sherrell will end up. So at this point in time, there is no clear cut indication if he’ll end up as a Spartan or not. We will know soon enough, though, when he announces his commitment in mid-August.

Ohio State basketball makes cut for another top-50 prospect at center

We’ll know soon with a commitment date of August 13. #GoBucks

The Ohio State basketball team continues to make noise among recruits this offseason. Last week we told you about Jalen Shelley putting Ohio State in his top-five, and now another top-50 prospect has also included the Buckeyes on his shortlist.

Aiden Sherrell is the No. 6 center in the 2024 class according to 247Sports composite rankings. He stands at 6-foot, 10-inches, and hails from Norcross, Georgia, but currently lives in Napa, California where he attends Prolific Prep.

The scouting report from 247Sports Adam Finkelstein is very promising.

“Sherrell is one of the most naturally talented big men in the class with a versatile collection of tools,” says Finkelstein. “First, he’s an athletic big man who is approaching seven feet and yet is a fluid mover, runner, and explosive leaper. He can change ends, catch lobs well above the rim, hammer big dunks, and play above the rim on the defensive end. He also possesses some natural skill. He has a soft touch, not just around the rim but facing up. He can make some high released mid-range jumpers and can even make an occasional three, showing long-term potential to space the floor both vertically and to the arc.”

Joining Ohio State in Sherrell’s trimmed list are Alabama, Michigan State, Oklahoma, and Texas.

Along with Sherrell naming his finalists, the young man has also set a commitment date of August 13. The Bucks were the last to get a visit from the young man just over a month ago in June and are rumored to be in good position with the star center.
