After his initial commitment date was delayed last month, it now looks like 2022 five-star combo guard Zion Cruz, who has a Syracuse basketball offer, is ready to reveal his collegiate destination.

The 6-foot-5 Cruz, who is heading into his senior year at The Patrick School in Hillside, N.J., reportedly will announce his college choice this Sunday afternoon, according to a tweet from recruiting guru Joe Tipton.

Tipton says that Cruz’s three finalists are Atlantic Coast Conference member North Carolina, Southeastern Conference team Auburn and Big East Conference participant Creighton.
