One of Duke basketball head coach Jon Scheyer and his staff's biggest targets in the class of 2026, 5-star guard Deron Rippey Jr., is set to take an official visit to Durham from October 21st to 23rd. The elite prospect is in one of the most intense visit schedules of any elite in the class of 2026, and after recent performances, Rippey is now drawing comparisons to Memphis Grizzlies superstar Ja Morant. Rippey was in attendance at the USA Basketball Minicamp in Colorado Springs, CO, and was one of the top talents of the weekend. He's one of the most sought-after remaining recruits in the 2026 class, and he just put on a show before he touches down on Duke's campus.
