Depth concerns regarding the Duke basketball backcourt are now in the past.
Just as the 247Sports Crystal Ball had hinted at in recent days, the Duke basketball recruiting team has picked up a commitment from Blair Academy (N.J.) point guard Jaylen Blakes.
The 6-foot-2, 195-pound four-star prospect, who announced his college destination on Monday evening, ranks No. 102 overall on the 247Sports 2021 Composite. That said, Blakes seems a tad underrated due to his 6-foot-8 wingspan, smothering defense, and overall aggressive style of play.
