Oakland transfer Trey Townsend announced his commitment to Arizona on Wednesday.
The 2023-24 Horizon League Player of the Year has one season of eligibility remaining.
“Arizona checked all the boxes I was looking for during this process,” the 6-foot-6 forward told ESPN. “I look forward to getting to Tucson and playing for coach Tommy Lloyd, who has a proven track record of producing NBA players similar to me.”
Townsend averaged 17.3 points, 8.1 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.3 steals in 36 starts for the Golden Grizzlies in 2023-24.
In the NCAA Tournament, he tallied 17 points and 12 rebounds in a first-round upset of No. 3 seed Kentucky and added 30 points and 13 rebounds during an overtime loss to NC State in the second round.
Townsend started all 129 of his games over four seasons at Oakland, racking up 1,813 points, 889 rebounds, 239 assists, 166 steals and 100 blocked shots.
Townsend chose Arizona over Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State.
