Jay Z’s nephew Nahziah Carter commits to UW men’s basketball team

Nahziah Carter, the nephew of Jay Z, committed to play for the Washington men’s basketball team next season.

“Better late than never,” Carter wrote in a Twitter post late Friday night.

The 6-foot-6 wing from Rochester, New York originally signed with Dayton, but re-opened his recruiting when former Flyers coach Archie Miller left for Indiana.

Carter, who is considered a three-star prospect by ESPN, reportedly considered reclassifying to the 2018 class. According to a Scout.com report in April, he received interest from Georgetown, Georgia Tech, Boston College, Connecticut and UMass.
