Five-star small forward Nate Ament is perhaps the highest-ranked prospect in the 2025 class who has not committed to any school. However, he has announced a commitment date and shortlisted his five final schools.
Ament is set to announce his commitment at the McDonald's All-American game on April 1 and fans have shared their reactions on Instagram.

Nate Ament's college options
After months of suspense over his destination, Ament announced on "The Youngins Podcast" in February that he is considering five schools.
“I got a group of schools that I really want to focus in on and kind of put my attention towards for the remaining of this recruiting season before I choose my college. Those schools being Arkansas, Duke, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Louisville.”
Ament will play for the East Team in the McDonald's All-American game with the Boozer twins and Meleek Thomas.
Cameron and Cayden Boozer signed with the Duke Blue Devils in the early signing period, choosing to follow in their father’s footsteps. On the other hand, Thomas is signed with the Razorbacks.
Ament is the No. 2 small forward in the 2025 class, per the On3 Industry Ranking, while he’s the No. 4 overall prospect nationally.
