Arizona's already loaded roster got stronger Monday with the addition of 5-star wing Emmanuel Akot.

Per Evan Daniels of Scout.com, Akot will reclassify from the 2018 class to 2017.

"I chose to reclass because I know I'm ready," Akot said. "I want to get better and I know I will get pushed everyday at Arizona. I'll be on a really good team too so this is a great opportunity for me."

Prior to making the switch, the Canadian was considered the No. 15 player overall in 2018 and No. 3 at his position, per Scout.
