Moments ago, Columbia grad transfer Patrick Tape (pronounced “Tuh-Pay”) committed to Duke:
Duke has landed Columbia grad transfer Patrick Tape, he told @Stadium.
Stats: 11.3 ppg, 5.9 rpg in 2018-19.
Strong, physical, aggressive post player. Scores most of his points around the basket.

With the loss of Javin DeLaurier, Justin Robinson, Jack White, and probably Vernon Carey Jr., the Blue Devils were in need of some experience in the post. Tape will give them a physical presence along with freshmen Mark Williams, Henry Coleman, and Jaemyn Brakefield.
