Andrej Stojakovic, a standout basketball player and son of NBA legend Peja Stojakovic, has committed to the Illinois Fighting Illini after transferring from California. He cited the aggressive recruitment by Coach Brad Underwood and the belief that he could be the missing piece in their pursuit of a national championship. Stojakovic noted his admiration for the success of larger playmakers under Underwood and expressed excitement about being an integral part of an up-tempo offense that features multiple shooting options.
"Coach [Brad] Underwood has been very aggressive recruiting me from the start and constantly reiterating how much I'm wanted and needed as a basketball player there."
"Their track record. Ayo Dosunmu, T.J. [Shannon], [Marcus] Domask, Will Riley, Kasparas [Jakucionis], bigger guards that are considered ball-handlers, that can relieve pressure for their teammates."
