Aaliyah Chavez, the nation’s top uncommitted basketball recruit, is visiting Oklahoma on Saturday for the Sooners’ NCAA Tournament first-round game, according to multiple reports.

The Sooners are one of a handful of finalists for Chavez, who hails from Lubbock (Texas) Monterey and ranks as the consensus No. 1 prospect in the country. The 5-foot-9 guard just capped off an incredible senior season with a state championship earlier this month. She finished her career with 4,796 points, which ranks 14th all-time on the girls’ state scoring list. She averaged 34.9 points, 9.1 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 3.7 steals per game as a senior, leading Monterey to a 37-5 record.

She is set to announce her commitment decision on Tuesday, with the Sooners and rival Texas considered to be the favorites going into the announcement.

She visited the Longhorns earlier this month as well for one of their final regular-season games, and head coach Vic Schaefer attended one of her playoff games. Texas Tech and South Carolina are among her other finalists, but according to On3’s Pete Nakos it is a mostly two-horse race.

“Sources tell On3 that Texas and Oklahoma are the two frontrunners down the stretch, as Texas Tech remains in the picture ahead of her March 25th commitment,” Nakos wrote earlier this month. “The Lubbock native is looking to land a financial package valued at $1.5 million from the school of her choice.”

Chavez was recently named the Naismith Girls High School Player of the Year and Gatorade National High School Player of the Year, ending one of the most prolific prep basketball careers ever.
