UNC Basketball extends offer to 2026 five-star forward Tajh Ariza, son of a long-time NBA veteran
Posted Jun 20, 2025
You've probably heard of Trevor Ariza, a former UCLA Bruin who spent 18 seasons in the NBA. A 2009 NBA Champion with the Lakers, Ariza played for 10 franchises, earning a reputation as a lockdown defender with the ability to flat-out shoot the basketball. Trevor's son, Tajh Ariza, is next up. He's one of the top overall recruits in the Class of 2026.
