Next Duke basketball star feels growth spurt coming on
An incoming Duke basketball freshman may soon sprout into another position.
If next season's Duke basketball roster came out today, then it would likely only show two players taller than 6-foot-9. With that in mind, Mike Krzyzewski and his gang surely wouldn't complain if Jalen Johnson did indeed outgrow his 6-foot-8, 220-pound frame, particularly in the vertical direction.
At No. 11 on the 247Sports 2020 Composite, the versatile small forward sits the highest among the new arrivals and one spot ahead of where the top returnee, sophomore power forward Matthew Hurt, ranked in 2019.
