UA guards Nico Mannion and Josh Green have yet to officially announce their departures.
Arizona has eight players lined up so far for 2020-21, seven if Brandon Williams does not return, but is pursuing a combination of high school players, transfers and international prospects.
Nnaji was named the Pac-12 Freshman of the Year after leading the Wildcats in scoring (16.1) and rebounding (8.6) while shooting 57.0% from the field.
In a tweet announcing his decision, Nnaji expressed religious thanks, while also thanking UA coach Sean Miller, his teammates, UA fans and his family.
