Washington State men’s basketball has received a commitment from forward Spencer Mahoney, a 6-foot-8-inch forward from Vancouver, Washington. Mahoney is the first recruit of the 2021 class for the Cougars and is expected to make an immediate impact.
Mahoney is a four-star recruit who was ranked as the No. 6 player in the state of Washington by 247Sports. He was also ranked as the No. 4 power forward in the region and the No. 95 overall player in the nation. He chose Washington State over offers from Gonzaga, Oregon, Stanford, and Washington.
Mahoney is a versatile player who can play both inside and outside. He has a good shooting touch and can stretch the floor with his three-point shooting. He also has the ability to drive to the basket and finish at the rim. He is a good rebounder and defender who can guard multiple positions.
Mahoney is a great addition to the Washington State men’s basketball program. He is a talented player who can contribute right away. He will be a key part of the Cougars’ 2021 recruiting class and should help them compete for a Pac-12 championship in the near future.
Washington State head coach Kyle Smith is excited to have Mahoney join the program. “Spencer is a great fit for our program,” Smith said. “He is a versatile player who can do a lot of things on the court. He has a great shooting touch and can play both inside and outside. We are thrilled to have him join our team and look forward to seeing what he can do for us in the future.”
Washington State men’s basketball is looking to build on their recent success and Mahoney should help them do just that. He is a talented player who can make an immediate impact and help the Cougars compete for a Pac-12 championship in the near future.
