Kimora Fields, a 5-star prospect and one of the top players in the nation, has officially committed to the Clemson Tigers, choosing the ACC powerhouse over top programs like the Tennessee Vols and Kentucky Wildcats. The decision, made public earlier this week, marks a significant moment for the Tigers as they continue to build a dominant women’s basketball program.
Fields, ranked No. 32 in the prestigious ESPNW Super 60 for the Class of 2025, is known for her impressive scoring ability, basketball IQ, and versatility on both ends of the floor. The 6-foot-1 guard from North Carolina brings an elite level of athleticism and skill that has made her a highly sought-after recruit. Her commitment to Clemson is expected to be a game-changer for the Tigers’ future in the competitive world of college basketball.
Throughout her recruitment, Fields was courted by some of the most storied programs in college basketball, including the Tennessee Vols and Kentucky Wildcats. Both teams had made strong pushes to secure her commitment, but Fields ultimately chose Clemson, citing the program’s vision for her development and the strong relationships she built with the coaching staff.
Fields’ decision is seen as a major victory for Clemson, a program that has steadily risen in prominence in recent years. With Fields on board, Clemson hopes to continue its ascent in the ACC and national rankings. Her addition to the team is expected to provide an immediate impact, as she is considered one of the top young talents in the country.
This commitment also signals a growing trend of high-profile recruits opting to join Clemson, which has increasingly positioned itself as a serious contender in women’s college basketball. Fans are eagerly anticipating the impact Fields will have when she steps onto the court for the Tigers in the 2025-26 season.
