With Zion Williamson, Duke Now Has Greatest Modern-Day Recruiting Class
Zion Williamson Gregory Payan/Associated PressZion Williamson surprised a lot of people by committing to Duke in a live ceremony on ESPN2 on Saturday evening. Though he never officially posted a list of finalists, everyone seemed to believe the phenom from Spartanburg, South Carolina, would choose between Clemson and Kentucky.
Instead, he decided on "joining the brotherhood of Duke University," giving head coach Mike Krzyzewski and the Blue Devils a group of freshmen unlike anything we've seen before.
(And Kentucky head coach John Calipari was none too pleased about Williamson's decision.)
