Wednesday is the beginning of the early signing period for all sports except football and Wisconsin's men's basketball program was busy getting four-star guard Zach Kinziger, Middleton, Wisc. big man Will Garlock and New Zealand wing Hayden Jones to officially sign on the dotted line.

Currently ranked as the No. 3 player in Wisconsin, Kinziger has been verbally committed to the Badgers since Aug. 4, 2023, but he officially signed to the program on Wednesday. 247Sports' composite rankings slot him as the No. 95 player in the country and a four-star prospect.

Hailing all the way from New Zealand, Jones has been verbally committed to Wisconsin since July. He is a bit more of an unknown recruit. He averaged 2.9 points and 1.3 assists per game on 33.6/16.7/83.3 shooting splits playing at a professional level in the NBL for the Nelson Giants last season. He is listed at 6-foot-5 and projects more as a long-term developmental prospect.

Middleton, Wisc. star center Will Garlock officially signed late in the day. He has been verbally committed since June 8. 247sports currently ranks their class as the 45th-best in the country for the 2025 cycle.

The early signing period will last for one week until Nov. 20.
