2024 guard ZZ Clark, younger brother of ’22 five-star Skyy Clark, commits to Illinois
By CHARLIE PARENT
Class of 2024 point guard ZZ Clark has commited to Illinois, he announced Monday.
Clark is the younger brother of Class of ’22 five-star guard Skyy Clark, who committed to the Illini on April 7th, after decomiting from Kentucky earlier this year.
2024 PG ZZ Clark has committed to the Illini and coach Brad Underwood.
Clark’s brother, Skyy, just committed to Illinois almost 2 weeks ago. Clark is an excellent early addition to Illinois’ 2024 class.
While ZZ Clark is not yet ranked on 247 Sports, he held offers from Kansas, Arizona State, Creighton, and DePaul, before ultimately joining Illinois.
“Getting to know Coach (Brad) Underwood and the rest of the staff made it feel more like home,” Clark told On3.com. “I’ve been fortunate enough to meet a lot of coaches through this process and watch a lot of college basketball but, the feeling I have for this program makes this the right time to commit.”
Clark will play at Windermere Prep (FL) next season and joins four-star forward Morez Johnson in Illinois’ 2024 class.
