Andre Iguodala II Commits to Baylor, 3-Star Prospect is Son of 4-Time NBA Champion

The son of retired NBA star Andre Iguodala committed to Baylor.

"The staff and the opportunity to develop and improve were big reasons why I committed," Andre Iguodala II said to On3's Joe Tipton. "They showed me a lot of support and love and looked like a true family on my official visit to campus."

Iguodala is a 3-star recruit and the No. 51 small forward in 247Sports' ranking for the 2025 class.

247Sports national basketball director Eric Bossi called him a "late-blooming prospect with significant upside" after evaluating his game in March.

"While he's still on the thin side and will need to focus on the weight room when he gets to college, Iguodala is an elite mover with well above average athleticism," Bossi said. "He runs extremely well in transition, he changes directions laterally and he has outstanding length to go along with this 6"7" and growing size. A bit of a tweener, he can play as a big wing or as a small ball four man. As a senior, he's developed significantly as a jump shooter and has turned into a dangerous spot up shooter with range beyond the three-point line."

In addition to getting scholarship offers from Baylor and Northern Arizona, Iguodala made a February visit to his father's alma mater, Arizona.

The Missouri native is only the second high school recruit head coach Scott Drew has secured during the 2025 cycle. Tounde Yessoufou, a 5-star small forward and the No. 14 overall player in 247Sports' composite rankings, signed his letter of intent.

Iguodala and Yessoufou aside, Drew and his assistants have looked to the transfer portal to fill out the roster for 2025-26. Forward Michael Rataj and guard Obi Agbim headline the group.

Next year, the Bears will look to avoid the same outcome that has befallen them for four straight seasons. After winning a national title in 2021, they've lost in the second round of the NCAA tournament in each successive campaign.
