Four-star shooting guard Junior County announced his commitment to UConn on Thursday.
The 6-foot-4 prospect from Mount Pleasant, Utah, chose the Huskies over Maryland, Arizona, Purdue and Indiana.
County is ranked No. 29 overall and No. 2 at his position in the 2026 recruiting class by 247Sports.
“I chose UConn because of the player development, relationship, coaching style, and fit,” County told 247Sports.
County said he already has formed a “great relationship” with Huskies coach Dan Hurley.
“I love the intensity of the practices,” he said. “I think that’s why he is able to get the best out of his players every day.”
County averaged 13.6 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists on the Nike EYBL Circuit this summer.
