Duke basketball picks reclass candidate for first 2022 offer

Surprisingly, across the 11 days since college coaches could begin directly contacting 2022 recruits, no outlets have reported any calls from the Duke basketball staff to Montverde Academy (Fla.) small forward Caleb Houstan. Evidently, though, Mike Krzyzewski and his assistants have been zeroing in on the 6-foot-8, 200-pound five-star all along.

On Friday, Rivals insider Corey Evans tweeted that Duke, Alabama, and Gonzaga all recently extended offers to Houstan. So unless any secret Blue Devil offers are out there, this news gives the No. 7 overall on the 247Sports 2022 Composite the distinction as Coach K's first bonafide target from his class.
