June 15 marks the first day college coaches are allowed to make contact with recruits in the rising junior class, so today the Wildcats have been active with getting out new offers. Here's a rundown of the newest targets on the program's recruiting board.
Other notable offers: Minnesota, Cal, Wisconsin, Iowa, Nebraska, Purdue, Virginia Tech, Texas
Rundown: Arizona has fully dedicated itself to pursuing prospects in Minnesota and the Wildcats offered another member of the D1 Minnesota travel program that Zeke Nnaji was part of during his high school days. Camden Heide is an intriguing forward recruit who is already ranked as a top-50 prospect in the 2022 class. The 6-foot-5 wing is a big-time shot maker and Arizona continues to want to upgrade its perimeter shooting so the offer makes plenty of sense.
"A bigger guard-wing that can play both off of the ball spots out top, what Heide does well has never been more valuable for today’s game," Rivals.com's Corey Evans said of the four-star prospect after watching him last season. "A shot maker at its finest, every time Heide shoots the ball, you feel as if it is going to go in. He has no issues getting into open spots within the opposing defense but has a strong feel for the game that allows for him to make the proper read off of the catch, whether that is shooting it from 22-feet, attacking the closeout or hitting the open teammate with the quick pass."
Other notable offers: UCLA, TCU, UNLV, LMU, Pepperdine
Rundown: The Las Vegas-based point guard is a three-star recruit who is part of the Rivals150 already and he has continued to gain some more attention as the process moves ahead. The Wildcats have focused quite a bit on point guard prospects in the 2022 class already and Uzan is someone the staff has been keeping an eye on for a while now. UCLA offered him back in February and that is a big offer in the overall picture, but he has connections with current UA linebacker Tony Fields II on the football side and there is a strong relationship among the Desert Pines crew. He plays for Dream Vision on the adidas circuit so whenever travel ball is able to get back into full swing he is someone who will have a lot of eyes on him.
Other notable offers: Cal, Washington
Rundown: The three-star point guard from Long Beach Poly in Southern California is going to be an important recruit for a number of programs and some of that has to do with who his brother is. Watson is the younger brother of five-star 2021 wing Peyton Watson who has a laundry list of offers from across the country. Peyton has already used an official visit on a trip to Arizona and he has taken an official visit to Washington as well. It is no coincidence that both programs have now offered his younger brother as the two recruits are very close. Christian is naturally someone I have seen a lot of over the last year since he plays on the same team as his brother. They are two different prospects right now with Christian being a bit smaller overall. He is a bit more of a distributor and less of a scorer than his brother, but he can be plenty effective himself when it comes to getting the ball in the basket. He will still need to add some bulk to compete at a high level in college but he has plenty of talent to work with already.
