Five-star point guard Reese Alston, the son of former NBA player Rafer Alston, has committed to play for LSU under head coach Will Wade, according to a report by Craig Meyer of USA TODAY NETWORK on Thursday.
Alston, a highly touted recruit in the 2026 class, announced his decision on October 29, 2026. The commitment adds a significant piece to LSU's future backcourt.
Rafer Alston, known for his streetball roots and NBA career, played for several teams including the Houston Rockets and Orlando Magic. His son's commitment continues a basketball lineage at the collegiate level.
Will Wade, entering his season as LSU's head coach, secures a top-tier talent as he builds the program's roster.
