Duke Basketball: Tourney record in sight for 2019 signee Wendell Moore

Whether or not Wendell Moore scores 52 points during his Cox Mill High School’s fifth-place game at 3:30 p.m. on Monday, a Duke basketball player — either a past one or a future one — will hold the Beach Ball Classic’s four-game scoring record.

That’s impressive considering the list of studs who have appeared in Myrtle Beach’s annual high school basketball tournament, which started in 1981 and always falls the week between Christmas Day and New Year’s Day.

Kobe Bryant. Kevin Garnett. Grayson Allen. R.J. Barrett. Name a great player over the past four decades, and there’s a solid chance he played in the event.
