The Duke basketball program currently sits with the No. 5 overall 2026 recruiting class according to 247Sports, but head coach Jon Scheyer and his staff are still heavily in the mix for two elite 5-star guards in the class. Deron Rippey Jr. and Jordan Smith are the top-ranked point guard and combo guard, respectively, in the 2026 recruiting class, and new breaking news on Rippey could become a major development as the Blue Devils look to land him.
Scheyer and Co. have sealed two 5-star commitments so far from forwards Bryson Howard and Cameron Williams.
