Players to watch - Purple Team
David Duke - 6’3” Guard, Freshman class of 2018
Duke is ranked by Scout.com as four star recruit out of Cushing Academy.
He has scholarship offers from Providence, URI, Kansas, Syracuse, Florida, UConn, Rutgers and Creighton.
About Duke, Scout.com writes “David Duke is one of the faster rising members of the 2018 class. He has terrific athleticism and shows a good feel for the game from the point guard position. In college he should be a tremendous defender because of his lateral movement, length, and quick twitch athleticism. On the offensive end he shows the ability to make shots, though that can be inconsistent, and is an excellent passer who can set up teammates. Duke likely will play point guard, but also should be comfortable off the ball. His upside is tremendous, now it is a matter of putting all of his physical tools together and being consistently dominant game to game."
Duke will be wearing number 2 in Saturday's game.
