Overview
- Davion Thompson announced his commitment to Arkansas on Wednesday and chose the Razorbacks over Baylor, Michigan and Vanderbilt.
- Recruiting services list Thompson as a five-star 2027 prospect ranked roughly No. 22 overall and No. 5 among point guards.
- He arrived at Arkansas on the strength of a breakout spring, averaging 21.7 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.9 assists for Meanstreets while shooting about 52 percent from three on the EYBL circuit.
- Arkansas staff and local reporting say the program expects Thompson to reclassify and join the 2026-27 roster but that early-enrollment has not been independently confirmed.
- If he enrolls early, Thompson would add perimeter shooting and ball-handling to a freshman-heavy backcourt and intensify competition for minutes behind projected starters.
