Head coach Sean Miller howls during Arizona's 78-66 win over CSUB in McKale Center on Tuesday, Nov. 15, 2016.

The early signing period for high school basketball recruits closed on Wednesday afternoon, and four high school prospects signed their letters of intent with the Wildcats. Arizona basketball finds itself with the No. 1 recruiting class in the nation, as of Thursday afternoon.

That's in large part to the commitment of center DeAndre Ayton, the No. 1 overall recruit in the nation. Ayton hails from the Bahamas, but has relocated to Phoenix where he attends Phoenix Hillcrest Prep.
