Duke Basketball Recruiting: Latest breaking news on key 2026 5-star target

The Duke basketball program has sealed two commitments from recruits in the class of 2026, in 5-star forward Bryson Howard and seven-footer Maxime Meyer. The next domino to fall in Jon Scheyer's 2026 recruiting trail could be 5-star guard Deron Rippey Jr., as it was just reported that Rippey will be cutting his list of schools from 10 to five after his official visit to NC State this weekend. Rippey is one of the most sought-after guards in the 2026 recruiting class, and he's one of the top targets for Scheyer and his staff.
