Class of 2025 five-star guard Agot Makeer has officially signed with the South Carolina women’s basketball program after committing to the Gamecocks on the first day of March.
The 6-foot-1 wing is ranked the No. 4 overall prospect and No. 1 small forward in her class by the On3 Industry Ranking.
South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley provided her thoughts on Makeer via release on Thursday morning.
“We’re excited to bring Agot into our Gamecock family,” Staley said. “She brings size, speed and versatility to our guard unit with her ability to play multiple positions. Her ball handling and passing skills enhance her ability to score and spread the defense. Agot is super competitive, talented and has an unlimited ceiling.”
