Sammie Yeanay, a four-star power forward in the 2024 class, has committed to Arizona State.

The 6-foot-9, 220-pound senior out of Compass Prep (AZ) chose the Sun Devils over a final group of Ohio, Florida, Washington State, and Utah.

“Coaches at ASU were the most consistent with recruiting,” Yeanay said to On3. “They were always communicating with me via text/phone and coming to my practices. The ASU coaching also staff gave me a blueprint that I felt most comfortable.”

In his own words, what type of player is Arizona State getting in Sammie Yeanay?

“Three-level scorer and an underrated passer. Although I am an inch or two shorter than Embiid, my game has a resemblance! I can consider myself a three/stretch four. I am super versatile because I can also guard multiple positions.”
