A new frontrunner has entered the race in the recruitment of Nate Ament, one of the top high school basketball players in the nation. Ament, a five-star forward ranked No. 4 in the 2025 class, appears to be getting closer to making his college decision. After several instances where an announcement seemed imminent, the standout senior now seems prepared to commit, possibly as soon as this weekend.
Standing 6-foot-9, Ament plays for Highland School in Warrenton, Virginia. He has narrowed his list to five schools: Arkansas, Duke, Kentucky, Louisville, and Tennessee. Ament has completed visits to each program and has all the necessary information to choose his next destination.
Although it has looked like a decision was near on more than one occasion, the situation continues to develop. Recently, a new school has taken the lead in his recruitment, indicating that his final choice may not be as clear-cut as previously thought.
Ament’s recruitment has been closely followed due to his exceptional talent and high national ranking. Each of the remaining programs in contention has made a strong push, and Ament has had ample time to evaluate what each school offers.
As the decision approaches, the basketball world waits to see where one of the most coveted prospects in the 2025 class will land. His final choice could be announced very soon.
