After committing to Gonzaga on March 26, Class of 2021 five-star guard Hunter Sallis has officially signed.
“Hunter is a great person, that comes from a great family,” head coach Mark Few said April 15 in a release. “He is a high character individual with a bright future. We’re looking forward to having him on our team and in our Zag family.”
The 6-foot-5, 175-pound combo guard from Millard North (NE) High School, chose the Zags over Kentucky, North Carolina, Iowa State, Kansas, Creighton, UCLA and Oregon.
“Spokane reminds me a lot of Omaha. Not much going except basketball and school. That’s the way I like it,” Sallis said in an interview March 26 with ESPN’s Paul Biancardi.
Ranked by 247Sports.com as the No. 2 combo guard and No. 6 overall prospect in the Class of 2021, Sallis joins Kaden Perry as the second commit in the Zags’ 2021 recruiting class.
Gonzaga, the No. 1 overall seed in this year’s NCAA Tournament, is set to face Creighton Sunday in the Sweet 16.
