The UConn men’s basketball 2021 recruiting class has taken another leap forward as power forward Samson Johnson from The Patrick School in Elizabeth, New Jersey has committed to Dan Hurley.
The 6-foot-10 rising senior is a 200-pound four who can hit the three-ball, especially from the corner, and runs the floor well.
He is ranked No. 86 in his class by 247sports and No. 108 by Rivals. Johnson’s commitment marks the third for Hurley’s 2021 class, which is now ranked at No. 4 on 247sports’ class rankings.
