Boom! Your UCLA basketball team landed their second commitment for the 2019 recruiting class, as four-star small forward Jaime Jaquez, the 6th best payer in California, gave his verbal to the Bruins today.
Jaquez joins 4-star combo guard Grant Sherfield out of Mansfield Summit (Arlington, TX). This now gives UCLA the second highest ranked team on 247Sports 2019 recruiting class rankings (author’s note, after Jaquez committed, UCLA received another commit, boosting them up to #1 overall).
Jaquez is a very athletic 6’7, 210 lbs. player that can stretch the floor. Not only does he have good ball control and can take the rock up court on his own (he has the makings of a point forward), but he also has good vision and has the knack for finding open teammates.
