As for what would go into his commitment, Ament said at the McDonald’s Game: “As far as my commitment goes, definitely going to I want to have play for a coach that believes in me. He’s going to push me to be better than I already am, but also allow me to, you know, showcase my skills and teach me how to play the game the right way. Also, you know, a great recruiting class, you know, players I want to play with. Players that want to play with me. Those two things are huge. And then also, just like, you know, how the team, the culture of the school and the team, do they have a family aspect? Do they bond well, on and off the court. So those things are probably going to play the biggest part, too.”
Last October, he signed an NIL deal with Reebok.
