San Francisco (Calif.) Archbishop Riordan four-star small forward Zion Sensley is down to five schools, he tells On3.

Moving forward, the 6-foot-8, 170-pound rising senior will consider Alabama, Arizona State, Hawaii, LSU, and St. Mary’s.

Sensley has only officially visited one of his finalists thus far — St. Mary’s. He also plans to take official visits to LSU and Hawaii, with the possibility of more.

According to the On3 Industry Rankings, Sensley is the No. 105 overall prospect in the 2024 cycle. He’s also the No. 34 small forward prospect and the No. 12 player in the state of California. The On3 Industry Ranking is a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

In a previous interview with On3, Sensley broke down his game and described his style of play.

“I would say I bring a lot of energy and being able to find people,” he said. “I feel like that’s something that is kind of underrated. I’m a pass first high player. And then I also look to score, hit open shots. I can shoot with range and then get to rim at will. I can also handle it. So I could really play one through four. So I feel like I’m very versatile.”

Sensley Scouting Report

“Zion Sensley has a great frame, and he comes from good bloodlines. Sensely’s dad, Julian, was a top 50 recruit in the early 2000s and played professionally overseas for a decade. Sensley has a smooth shooting stroke from three, consistent release with good balance. He will mix it up on the boards and is a good area rebounder. Sensley is a late bloomer and still coming into his own on the floor. He is a solid athlete and is starting to attack closeouts, especially off one and two dribbles. While his offer sheet may not match, Sensely is tracking as a top 100 type talent in his class with the upside for more.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
