His perfect 3-pointer justifies his No. 3 national ranking. The Westchester Senior High School standout can be seen charging through the court as he outmaneuvers the defense. Then, slipping out of the corner of the court with a quick step to create just enough space, he squared up and released the ball that went cleanly through the nets.

Although Ariza continues to drop stellar performances, Westchester High School seems to have lost the momentum. After two consecutive losses against Archbishop Carroll and JSerra Catholic, the team bounced back with a victory against North on Dec. 14. In their last game against Bishop Gorman, Ariza’s side lost the match, 60-72.

Will Tajh Ariza leave the West Coast for his college career?

Tajh Ariza is a talented five-star prospect who is on the radar of multiple Division 1 colleges. According to 247Sports, he has 11 offers on the table, with programs like Arizona State, Arkansas, and Kentucky pushing forward to secure his commitment.

While the 16-year-old is yet to decide, he is ready to move anywhere for a college program that aligns with his preferences and offers him opportunities to grow as a player. Ariza shared his thoughts on his college commitment with 247Sports.

"People think that I'm staying on the West Coast, but I just want to go to the place that best fits me," Ariza shared.

"I've lived in many other places, like Houston and North Carolina. I was in DC for a little bit with my dad, so I've been everywhere and am interested in anywhere, not just the West Coast," he added.

Besides, he seems to be confident in his abilities and has a clear vision for his way forward.

"What can separate me is being nearly 6-foot-9 with guard skills and being able to defend anywhere on the court and rebound. I'm just focusing on being versatile and establishing my role as a leader this year,” he declared.

With his confident demeanor and exceptional basketball skills, Tajh Ariza is undoubtedly destined for a promising college career.
