The world of women’s basketball is aglow with exciting news. Two of the game’s brightest 2025 young talents, Janiyah Williams and Sienna Betts, are making waves and charting their paths towards promising futures.

Williams, the dazzling guard from Stillwater, Oklahoma, is bound for an official visit to Tennessee in January, per her father Tevin Williams, while Betts, the unstoppable forward from Reno, Nevada, has just committed to UCLA.

The Journey of Janiyah Williams

Williams, a five-star recruit, is a comet streaking through the basketball cosmos. This Sooner State prodigy is set to light up any school she goes to, so the Volunteer State has to be excited that her radiant talent will visit Rocky Top.

Sienna Betts’ Commitment

While Williams explores her options, UCLA hit a grand slam today as the nation’s No. Sienna Betts has hit a home run by committing to UCLA. The Colorado powerhouse has decided to take her formidable skills to the City of Angels, to combine them with her older sister, Lauren Betts.

The Implications of Williams’ Visit

Williams’ visit to Tennessee is a big deal. With No. 16 Nyla Brooks already committed, if the Lady Vols can land Williams, this will form a prolific backcourt for years to come.

Betts’ Impact on UCLA

With Betts’ commitment, UCLA secures not only the No. 3 recruit in 2025, but also the best post player in the class as well. Her addition to the Bruins can turn them into an even more formidable force in their new home, the Big Ten.

The Countdown to Williams’ Visit

As the clock ticks down to Williams’ official visit in January, anticipation builds. And for Tennessee to be bringing her on an official visit at the beginning of the New Year says a lot: Williams is special!

Celebrating Betts’ Decision

Betts’ decision to commit to UCLA is cause for celebration. A lot of schools were shocked that Betts chose the Bruins – this was a huge recruiting win for UCLA.

Looking to the Future

The paths of Janiyah Williams and Sienna Betts symbolize the exciting future of women’s basketball. As they take their next steps, we look forward to witnessing their continued growth and success in the sport they love.
