Duke Adds to Its 2019 Recruiting Riches by Landing Four-Star Cassius Stanley

The rich got richer on Monday, as one of the top remaining uncommitted prospects in the 2019 class, four-star guard Cassius Stanley, announced his commitment to Duke.

Stanley's decision comes on the heels of top-10 recruit Matthew Hurt also choosing the Blue Devils on Friday, further cementing what's poised to be Duke's fourth consecutive year with the nation's No. 1 recruiting class on the 247Sports composite.

A 6'5" shooting guard out of Sierra Canyon High School in Chatsworth, Calif., Stanley wasn't thought to be Durham-bound even one month ago. His top three had been Kansas, Oregon and UCLA before a late push by Coach K and the Blue Devils got them into the picture, culminating in a recent visit to campus before Monday's commitment.
