Three-star guard Imahri Wooten signs with Rutgers
BY ALEJANDRO LOPEZ
A three-star guard in the Class of 2026 has signed with Rutgers in the early signing period.
Guard prospect Imahri Wooten has signed with the Scarlet Knights, the team announced on Friday.
Wooten is the No. 9 recruit in the state of N.Y. and is the first member of Rutgers recruiting class of 2026.
“I’m very excited to be a member of Rutgers officially,” Wooten said. “I’m just very happy that the recruiting process is over, and I’m ready to lock in.”
The 6-foot-5 guard received offers from Auburn, Arizona State, Syracuse and Miami, among others; but ultimately decided on Rutgers as his next home.
“We are excited to welcome a special player and person to the Rutgers men’s basketball family,” head coach Steve Pikiell said. “Imahri is a knockdown shooter, has great size, and brings everything we want to our program. He comes from an elite AAU program that has produced hundreds of NBA players.”
Wooten played in the Nike EYBL Circuit for Albany City Rocks as a starter for multiple years.
Rutgers will hope to continue to keep the momentum going as they build out their Class of 2026.
