    6'9" Jason Asemota visiting in the next few weeks. Different sites have him rated very differently -- top 5, top 20, or below. It's still early for these kids though. Note: he says he'll also be visiting UNC.

    It's interesting that Cunningham is not taking a salary from OTE in hopes of maintaining college eligibility. This kid is super athletic, a great shooter, and has a lot of tools to be a great wing scorer. I hope he does go to college for a year. It'll be fun to watch.

    According to this article, he is from the same hometown as Kyrie Irving, and, more importantly, was at the same HS as Mgbako. Hopefully the relationship with Mgbako will help Duke. Cunningham is taking an interesting path.

    He's not getting a salary but will be able to get NIL money. It's a six of one half and a half dozen of the other.

    2024 Men's Basketball Recruiting

    Trentyn Flowers, a 6'8" sophomore who's been compared to Brendan Ingram, is a 5 Star and ranked #8 in his class. He has the usual list of college destinations but, according to an article this morning, says that Duke is his "dream school." The article mentions that Duke has, thus far, targeted only 3 guys in that 2024 class, including Naas Cunningham (rated #1 by 247 and a teammate of Mackenzie Mgbako), Bryson Tucker (#5, who has a Duke offer: https://247sports.com/college/basket...yer-183943429/), and Darren Harris (#49, who happens to attend the same hs as Keels and Roach).

    If you want to read about Flowers' high school, Sierra Canyon, which is best known for producing Marvin Bagley, III:

    Okay, Sierra Canyon's basketball team is best known for currently featuring the sons of LeBron and D Wade, etc, but Bagley is the only NBA player for this school that was created when Flowers was a toddler.

    I'd thought there was a 2024 thread but couldn't find it. Your link is just the spot, though it was started 11 years ago, doesn't have a 2024 headline and lacks a reference to Flowers.

    Maybe a moderator can merge?

    I think the "5-year old" who was the original subject of this thread was scared off by Coach K's retirement.

    You mean other than Cassius Stanley, Zaire Williams, Scottie Pippen Jr., Kenyon Martin Jr., and BJ Boston? Amari Bailey will spend one year at UCLA and then he too will be in the NBA.

    Also, D Wade's son is no longer on the team.

    Well, that’s what I get for uncritically trusting that NY Magazine article from February 2020–anything else begin to get rolling about then?

    Was trying to Google what happened to him, but can't even find his name...I guess he's 15/16 now.

    I found it a while ago

    I think this kid was Reese Woodbury- son of Mike Woodbury - a HS coach who got in a lot of trouble for verbally abusing his players- caught on tape.

    He looks like this kid

    Thanks. Went to golf and moved from Maine to Florida? Interesting.

    Class of 2024 Contacts

    This morning at midnight was the first time coaching staffs could reach out to contact recruits directly from the Class of 2024. My scraping of twitter indicates that the Duke staff has reached out to the following recruits:
    Naasir Cunningham, a 6'7" G/F from New Jersey
    Bryson Tucker, a 6'7" F from Baltimore, MD
    James Brown, a 6'9" F/C from St. Rita in Chicago
    Liam McNeeley, a 6'7" F from Texas
    Darrin Harris, a 6'6" G/F from Paul VI in Virginia

    Cunningham, Harris, and Tucker have previously received an offer from Duke.

    Another offer. https://twitter.com/iamtrejohnson1/s...rdKdqBOrPPb0Qg

    I'm pretty excited to see the Jai Lucas + Scheyer recruiting combo. Wow!

    New Offer Alert: Tre Johnson

    According to his twitter account, top 10 SG Tre Johnson has received an offer from Coach Scheyer and the staff at Duke. Johnson is a 6'5" SG from the Dallas, TX area and is ranked in the top 5 by 247 Sports.

    He called it "University of Duke" in his twitter post. Marques Bolden did that, too, if I recall. Maybe that's a good sign? This could also be the first recruit where Jai Lucas serves as the lead recruiter. One to watch, for sure.

    Maybe it's a Texas thing...I hear Thomas Hill, Matt Jones and Justise did the same thing, as did George W Bush.
