The Arizona Wildcats have struck for another international prospect, this time signing 6-foot-10 forward Daniel Batcho. ESPN considers him the top international big man to go the college route.
He also had offers from ASU, Creighton, Miami, and Virginia Tech.
Batcho averaged 14.8 points, 11.3 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks per game with CFBB Paris in the Adidas Next Generation Tournament, earning MVP honors.
Here’s what ESPN’s Jonathan Givony wrote about him: “At 6-foot-10 and 225 pounds, Batcho is a physical player and excellent rebounder who is able to play both power forward and center.
