Thompson Commits to Arkansas

Five-star point guard Davion Thompson has committed to Arkansas, choosing the Razorbacks over top programs like Vanderbilt and Baylor—and could reclassify to join the 2026 roster under John Calipari. Ranked 22nd nationally and fifth-best PG in his class, Thompson dazzled in Mexico with Team USA, scoring 11 vs. Argentina, and averaged over 21 points with elite 3-point shooting during Nike EYBL. His scoring versatility, footwork, and ability to force defenses to stretch could be a game-changer for a freshman-heavy roster, especially as he steps in to support Jordan Smith Jr. and Jeremiah Wilkinson. With Thompson’s arrival, Arkansas’ backcourt depth looks loaded, setting up a potential 10-man rotation that could carry the team to new heights next season.
