Gordon Commits To Arizona
Archbishop Mitty of San Jose 5 star forward Aaron Gordon announced at the McDonalds All American Game Media Day on Tuesday Morning he will head to Arizona in the fall. Gordon joins a Concord De La Salle guard Elliot Pitts and Philadelphia McDonalds All American Rondae Jefferson in Tucson.
This is the 3rd consecutive year the Wildcats have landed the best player in California by Rivals.com as they landed La Verne Lutheran's Grant Jerrett in the class of 2012, Sacramento's Josiah Turner in 2011. It also continues a strong pipeline with the Oakland Soldiers AAU Team, as they have landed Turner and Nick Johnson in 2011, Brandon Ashley in 2012, and with the addition of Gordon in 2013 are in strong position with fellow Soldiers, 2014 5 star Stanley Johnson of Mater Dei and 2015 unanimous top player Ivan Rabb of Bishop O'Dowd in Oakland.
Gordon will likely be the starting small forward on a top 10 team next season. As his jump shot and perimeter game improves, the sky is the limit for Gordon who has a chance to be one and done next year.
