Ilinois transfer Jacob Grandison commits to Duke

Illinois transfer Jacob Grandison will not be a Kentucky Wildcat. Instead, the 6-foot-6 wing will be joining the Duke Blue Devils.

“It became clear that I fit with the vision that Coach Scheyer has for Duke basketball,” Grandison told On3. ”I’m an elite passer to anyone. I’m a shooter and I space the floor. I am an elite cutter and I’ve proven myself to be a great decision maker. I’m poised under pressure and I play to win. Duke is winning.”

Grandison previously considered Kentucky, USC, BYU, UCLA, DePaul, Arizona, Iowa State, Michigan, Oregon before choosing Duke on Saturday.
