Bassey, a 6-foot-4, 200-pound guard, led his Colorado Academy squad to a second-consecutive appearance in the Class 3A title game earlier this month, where the Mustangs lost to Colorado Springs Christian by three.
The 2016 graduate averaged 23.0 points, 8.8 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 2.4 steals per game last season. The 23 points per game were fifth in the state regardless of classification, and led 3A.
He also had offers from Air Force, Wyoming and Weber State, according to his Scout and Rivals profiles.
Harvard went 22-8 this season in reaching the NCAA Tournament for the fourth consecutive season. The Crimson have reached the postseason six straight years, including an NIT trip in 2011, and a trip to the CIT in 2010.
