Jason Crowe Jr., the No. 4 overall prospect in the 2026 class, is committing to Missouri, he announced Friday on CBS Sports HQ.
Crow, the top-rated point guard on the 2026 ESPN 100, is the first five-star recruit of the class to commit to any school. He's also the second-highest ranked commit in the program's history, behind Michael Porter Jr.
The 6-foot-3 California native chose the Tigers over Kentucky, Texas, Arkansas, Arizona, and Alabama, among others.
"Just the coaching staff with coach (Dennis) Gates and all of the other coaches believing in me," Crowe said about choosing Missouri, according to 247Sports' Travis Branham. "Even though they came in late into the recruiting process, they gave me the keys and told me I have to work hard, and the team will revolve around me."
Crowe finished the Nike Elite Youth Basketball League as the competition's top scorer, dropping 26.5 points per game in four contests for the Oakland Soldiers.
