Ziaire Williams

Sierra Canyon’s Ziaire Williams tries to get by Jahmai Mashack of Etiwanda during the the CIF Open Division playoffs last month. Williams, Arizona’s top target and one of the 10 best players in the 2020 recruiting class, will pick a college on Sunday.

Four-star class of 2021 wing Jahmai Mashack of Etiwanda High School in Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., committed to Tennessee on Tuesday, choosing the Volunteers overΒ Β Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Oklahoma and Texas.

According to 247, Mashack had been rising among the top class of 2021 players, fromΒ No. 99 to No. 43 overall. Not surprisingly, he's had high-major offers roll in: Arizona, Oklahoma, Utah and Cal offered him in April, whileΒ  Texas and Louisville did in May, while Tennessee did so in June.

MashackΒ is the younger brotherΒ of former UA defensive back Kwesi Mashack, who played football for the Wildcats from 2014-17.

Another UA target, Oregon forward Ben Gregg, isΒ set to announceΒ his commitment on Wednesday, but Gonzaga may be the leader after offering him a scholarship last month. Three Rivals analysts predict he will pick the Bulldogs.

So far, ArizonaΒ has one commitmentΒ for the class of 2021, guard K.J. Simpson of Northridge, Calif.
