Phoenix (Ariz.) Hillcrest Prep four-star prospect Jason Asemota tells On3 he’s down to eight schools: Arizona State, Baylor, Kansas, LSU, Memphis, Ohio State, Oregon, and Stanford.

The 6-foot-8, 190-pound small forward has taken unofficial visits to Arizona State and Baylor. He will return to Waco to see the Bears again, this time officially, later this week. As of this writing, Asemota hasn’t scheduled any other visits.

In addition to the eight finalists on Asemota’s list, he also received offers from Ilinois, UNLV, Oklahoma State, Rutgers, Texas A&M, and others.

Asemota is the No. 13 overall prospect in the 2024 class, according to the On3 Consensus, the average ranking from all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 5 small forward and the No. 2 player in the state of Arizona.

In a previous interview with On3, Asemota said Baylor was recruiting him the hardest.

Asemota Scouting Summary

Jason Asemota is trending as one of the top prospects in the 2024 class. The 6-foot-8 wing has beautiful form on his jump shot with a smooth release and confidence off the catch or the bounce. Asemota has improved putting the ball on the floor, and while he can still get into some off-balanced shots, the confidence is improving. He is a good athlete and can do some things in transition. Asemota has a good wing handle two and three dribbles. We would like to see him get things tighter in the half-court and with his reads. His on-court play suggests his recruitment should reach the highest level.
