Duke was strongly recruiting Knight then backed off him when Irving started to blow up. I don't know much about McGary but maybe he had a growth spurt (like Davis did last year) or simply has made big improvements in his game. Or maybe, he plays for a friend of the coaching staff or someone that they would like to develop a relationship with and taking look McGary is a favor. Who knows but recruiting one player doesn't have to be related to the recruitment of another.
