Looking at his family lineage, there’s no denying that Jett Washington comes from successful sports family.
The nephew of the the late, great Los Angeles Laker legend and NBA Hall of Famer Kobe Bryant, Washington has made his mark at Bishop Gorman over the last few years earning five-star status.
Once his high school career comes to an end, he’ll get to make that impact up in Oregon.
Washington announced his commitment to the Ducks on Thursday choosing Oregon over Alabama and USC.
247Sports ranks the 6-foot-5, 200-pounder as the No. 18 player in the class as well as the No. 2 safety and No. 1 player in Nevada. He finished his junior season with 38 tackles, five interceptions, two pass breakups and a forced fumble.
Oregon first offered Washington last April, and he’s visited Eugene three times. His most recent visit came last week when he visited Eugene for his official visit.
Now, Washington headlines a Ducks class that’s comprised of nine pledges. Of their nine commitments, two rank as top-50 prospects and one, four-star running back Tradarian Ball, is ranked as the No. 1 player in the class.
Oregon’s other four-star commitment is tight end and basketball standout Kendre Harrison. The 6-foot-7, 243-pounder is the No. 48 player in the class.
