Five-star guard Nimari Burnett has narrowed his list of potential schools to five -- Alabama, Louisville, Michigan, Oregon & Texas Tech.

Burnett, a standout at Napa (Calif.) Prolific Prep, has also scheduled official visits to Alabama, Louisville and Michigan. He's slated to go to Michigan on Sept. 6, Louisville on Sept. 13 and Alabama on Sept. 27.

"For sure I’m going to definitely set up to the other two," Burnett told 247Sports.

Burnett broke down what he likes about each of his finalists:

Alabama: “It’s a new coaching staff coming from Buffalo. They recruited Jeenthan Williams, who was a teammate, for Prolific Prep my sophomore year. They felt like they couldn’t get me at Buffalo so when they got the job at Alabama they reached out to me immediately and we built a relationship. They see me coming in and playing point guard and doing multiple things on the floor to help the team win.”

Louisville: "Same thing as far as playing point guard, they also want me to potentially be a one and done. They have a good history with winning and they want me to come in and help them win right away."

Oregon: "They have a good recruiting class, recruiting Addison Patterson, Jalen Green, N’faly Dante and a couple more with a good roster already. They see me coming in and playing point guard, basically all the schools see me playing point guard and being an integral part of the teams success."

Michigan: "Juwan Howard, we go way back since I was about eight years old. We are basically like family, him and his sons and his wife we all have a good relationship. I feel like he’s going to be a really good coach at Michigan. It’s just a school and coach that you could trust, and I feel like I can trust him a lot."

Texas Tech: "They are new in my recruitment. They came in a week or two ago. Coach Ulric [Maligi] just got hired there. He previously coached at Texas A&M and he has ties with Chicago and he watched me grow and prosper and he just wants to be a part of the recruitment. Coach Beard has had success recently having Jarrett Culver and Zhiare Smith coming out of Texas Tech. being a top 10 team each and every year and they see me coming in and possibly being a one and done and also winning."

Although Burnett has his list narrowed down to a working number, he said he's not necessarily close to making his college choice.

"I definitely want to watch a little college basketball before I make my decision, because I want to make sure I’m making the right decision," Burnett said. "So I’m going to wait to January or early February."

Burnett had a strong spring and summer playing for Team Why Not on the Nike EYBL circuit. In 20 games, Burnett averaged 19.1 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists.

Burnett is ranked No. 23 overall and as the No. 5 combo guard in the 247Sports Composite Rankings
