The Duke basketball program likely will soon end up on its first 2022 list.

A tweet this week from Joe Tipton of Tipton Edits revealed that Westtown (Pa.) center and Duke basketball target Dereck Lively plans to unveil his seven finalists at 7 p.m. Thursday.

Now, considering that in June the 7-foot-1, 220-pound five-star became the first player to ever receive an offer directly from head coach-in-waiting Jon Scheyer, one might assume the Blue Devils survive the cut.
