Alabama 6'3 G Jaden Bradley has committed to Arizona and Tommy Lloyd!
Former 5🌟 Bradley had a solid freshman season, but played only one year in Tuscaloosa. He made the All-SEC Freshman Team at Alabama. As a starter, Bradley put up 6.4 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game in only 19 minutes a game. His specialty is to make the offense run, move the ball and he owns great passing vision to make the assist. He will team up with Kylan Boswell in the backcourt.
"Arizona recruited me the first time around. I am familiar with their staff and fast pace style of play. They run, they guard and move the ball. Coach Lloyd is an upbeat and energetic guy who is heavy on player development. He is on the court with his guys outside of practice."

Bradley Highlights
Alabama vs Gonzaga Bradley scores 18 points
Jaden Bradley interview after win in March Madness.
Good pickup for Arizona. Likely a multi year player, defends well, and plays bigger than his size inside the paint going to the hoop.
Looking forward to seeing him play.
Looks like Bradley's player profile is still up on the Alabama site.

He is a talented player that just needs to improve his outside shot.

He is going to be really good here.
Also He is a strong guard with good size for a pg.
Excited for his arrival, just with Bradley's commitment the outlook of the upcoming season looks alot brighter.

This is the type of downhill aggressive guard that will thrive at Arizona under Tommy. If this kid develops a shot, he's gone to the league - so I am ok watching that aspect develop over the next couple years.
He has some clear go-to moves in his bag that are incredibly effective - but it's his passing and vision that's the most exciting.
Bradley is an excellent addition.

Not sure how he will thrive under Tommy. Tommy has settled for a PG that jacked up 10 shots a game, all 3pt'ers for the last 2 years. But maybe Bradley can be the one to help Tommy learn how to coach Guards that are willing to dribble inside the arc and get to the rim. Mathurin was more of a SF to me overall, but Tommy's system was horrible for his playing style and he still was able to get his. Hoping to see Bradley teach Tommy that there is more to be gained by letting him drive and dish to a Big that can shoot the ball instead of focusing solely on forcing up long moonball lobs to the deep low post to Ballo. Bigs who can stretch the floor help players like Bradley and Bam Bam finish at the rim.
