Some combination of playing with a high school teammate and taking an official visit to Tucson influenced star 2023 point guard Jada Williams. It's impossible to know which were the deciding factors, but the end result is the same. The La Jolla Country Day School and USA Basketball star has flipped her verbal commitment, deciding that she will not play for UCLA and Cori Close as she originally announced in April of 2021 when she was just a sophomore in high school. Instead, she will be an Arizona Wildcat.
Williams is known both for her play on the court and her NIL savvy.
