The Duke basketball coaches have reeled in an ideal piece to fill one need.

Granted, former four-year Marquette forward Theo John is by no means a lethal scorer. Furthermore, the 6-foot-9, 255-pound muscleman has a tendency to attract foul trouble while battling for rebounds and defending opposing bruisers. Nonetheless, his tweeted commitment on Friday to the Duke basketball program is essentially just what the doctor ordered in Durham.

John is a former three-star recruit who ranked No. 204 overall on the 247Sports 2017 Composite.
