McDonald's All-American Game Roster Announced
That game will not be happening, but several Duke players and recruiting targets were named to the 24-member roster for the boys' team, including Paolo Banchero and AJ Griffin. Patrick Baldwin, Jr., and Trevor Keels also made the cut.
The two Dukies are the only two from the ACC so far this year. Michigan has three with G Kobe Bufkin, F Caleb Houstan, and F Moussa Diabate. There are a number of players going to the West Coast and Pac 12 schools, including C Nate Bittle to Oregon, C Jackson Grant to Washington, SF Harrison Ingram to Stanford, and SF Peyton Watson to UCLA.
In addition to Baldwin and Keels, the undecided players include PF Michael Foster (most likely going pro), G Jaden Hardy, C Chet Holmgren (likely Gonzaga), and G Hunter Sallis (also Gonzaga).
Hardy is interesting players. He has some noise about going pro as well, but he could really help a team as an elite offensive player. I'm surprised Kentucky hasn't made a bigger push. Then again, they may be hoping for Class of 2022 player Skyy Clark to reclassify.
