TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) Top recruit Brandon Williams has recommitted to Arizona after opening up his commitment in the wake of an FBI investigation.

Williams announced his decision Saturday at the Ballislife All-Star Game in Cerritos, California.

Williams de-committed from the Wildcats in March following an ESPN report alleging coach Sean Miller was heard on FBI wiretap discussing a $100,000 payment to lure a recruit to the school. Miller denied the report and ended up keeping his job after a review by the school.

Arizona assistant coach Emanuel Richardson also was arrested with nine others in September for allegedly using bribes and kickbacks to affect recruits' choices of schools.
