Standing 6-8 with the versatility to impact winning at multiple positions, this top-10 national recruit has already made the jump to college basketball.
Background
Hailing from Gilbert, Arizona, Peat developed his game through the competitive Arizona prep scene at Perry High School. As a member of the loaded 2025 recruiting class where he was ranked 8th nationally, he garnered significant attention from major programs across the country. His recruitment drew interest from powerhouse programs including Arizona, Alabama, Baylor, Houston, and Texas before ultimately choosing to stay home and suit up for the Wildcats.
Playing Style
Peat brings an intriguing blend of size and skill at the power forward position that translates well to the modern college game. His 6-8 frame allows him to create mismatches against smaller defenders while possessing the mobility to defend multiple positions on the perimeter. He shows promising fundamentals in the post while displaying the basketball IQ to make smart decisions with the ball in his hands. His length and athleticism make him a natural rebounder and rim protector, though he'll need to continue developing his outside shooting to maximize his versatility at the next level.
Recruitment
Now enrolled at Arizona, Peat has the physical tools and basketball foundation to develop into a key contributor for the Wildcats program. His high school pedigree as a top-10 national recruit suggests significant upside as he adjusts to the college game and continues refining his skill set under quality coaching.
