No. 1 women's basketball recruit Aaliyah Chavez to make college choice Tuesday on ESPN
The No. 1 women's college basketball recruit in the country will make her college choice on Tuesday, live on ESPN. Lubbock native Aaliyah Chavez is thought to be down to Texas and Oklahoma.
Last week, Chavez was named the 2025 Jersey Mike’s Naismith High School Player of the Year, capping off a dominant senior season. "Her senior season was impressive, as she averaged 34.9 points, 9.1 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 3.7 steals per game," the Naismith Award news release read. "She led Monterey to a 37-5 record and finished her career leading her team to its first state title in 44 years in the Class 5A Division II finals. In this year’s playoffs, she averaged 29.3 points per game, including games of 50 and 45 points."

Chavez attended the Texas-Mississippi State game in the fall with the Texas women's basketball team. "They were one of my first offers too, so just keeping them in,” Aaliyah told the media. ”They’re close to home. They recruit me well. I think I talk to them almost every day, and they always have high energy.”
"Rated as the No. 1 player in the class, Chavez is a prolific yet efficient scoring option at the guard position," 247Sports wrote in its scouting report. "She can play on the basketball or off, though she might be best suited to be a primary lead guard in college. Chavez gets her shot off as easily as any high school guard I can remember dating back to the days of Kelsey Mitchell as a prep prospect. A five-star guard, Chavez has legitimate shooting range to 25 feet with the ability to get into the teeth of the defense on a consistent basis to make a shot or find a corner shooter."
