Mount Paran Christian standout chooses Wolverines while big brother and Steelers quarterback went to rival Ohio State.

Jessica Fields, the sister of Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Justin Fields, announced her commitment to Michigan to play basketball in a recent post on X.

The Class of 2026 forward at Mount Paran Christian (Kennesaw, Ga.) chose the Wolverines over Georgetown and Northwestern. Interestingly, she didn't receive an offer from Ohio State, the alma mater of her brother where he starred in 2019 and 2020. 

Justin Fields went to Harrison (Kennesaw, Ga.), where he accounted for for 6,283 yards of total offense and 69 touchdowns during his prep career.

Jessica Fields was a second team GHSA All-State pick last season and first team nod in Class AA. She is an elite shot blocker who has helped Mount Paran Christian to three straight AA titles, including a 29-3 season last year.
 
Fields topped 1,000 career points during her junior season and heads into the 204-25 campaign as one of the top-ranked players from the Peach State.

The future Wolverine will become the third member of the family to play Division I sports as Jaiden Fields, who also went to Harrison, played softball at the University of Georgia. Jaiden Fields hit .310 with 29 home runs for the Bulldogs and also signed a deal with WWE as part of its 2024 NIL (Next in Line) class.
