Overview
- Savoury, a five-star 2027 guard from Belleville, Michigan, announced her commitment to UConn on Friday after visits and recruiting contact with Geno Auriemma and Chris Dailey.
- She chose the Huskies over finalists that included North Carolina, Texas, USC, Notre Dame and UCLA and praised UConn’s culture and player-development plan.
- National services rank Savoury among the top 10 in the class of 2027 and her résumé includes Gatorade Michigan Player of the Year honors, about 27 points per game as a junior, and USA Basketball experience at the 2026 U18 AmeriCup.
- UConn had offered about a month before the pledge and Savoury becomes the program’s first 2027 commit and extends UConn’s streak of landing at least one five-star recruit for the past 13 years.
- Her commitment could affect near-term roster minutes because UConn will lose guards to graduation, creating a plausible pathway for Savoury to see early playing time as a freshman.
