Arizona Wildcats Land Top Recruit Caleb Holt

0:00On May 2nd, Arizona Wildcats just landed a massive recruit in 5-star shooting guard, Caleb Holt, from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This 6-foot-5-200-pound phenom signed with Coach Tommy Lloyd Squad, and he's already pegged as a future star in Navy Blue, White, and Red. Holt's got the tools to lead them deep into the NCAA tournament right away. His high school resume screams elite, McDonald's All-American, 3-time gold medalist with Team USA juniors, and Co-MBP at the Nike Hoops Summit. That aggressive style earned him the number 3 spot on SC Next Top 100 list for incoming freshmen who impact their teams immediately. Fans and scouts are buzzing because Holt fits Arizona's gritty system perfectly. He's a defensive anchor who locks down opponents, grabs boards, and scores from anywhere. Offing 24 points on 9 of 18 shooting in a Team USA game, plus averages of 10 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 2.7 steals for the U19 gold squad in Switzerland.

1:03Lately, Holt's evolved into a complete guard, boosting his long-range game, driving hard to the rim, and dishing 2.1 assists per game. His 7 steals against the world team at Nike Hoops Summit show that anticipation on D, turning him from score to all-around threat. If he keeps building like this, Holt could be a top 5 NBA draft pick, giving the Wildcats that edge they've craved while he molds into their next. Big leader on the court?
