Derryck Thornton Reclassifies To 2015, Commits To Duke

There has been a lot of hoopla lately about Duke’s roster going into the 2015-16 basketball season and the major problem fans were having is that the roster lacked a point guard. Well that problem has now officially been solved as Duke has landed five-star point guard Derryck Thornton who has officially decided to reclassify to the recruiting class of 2015.

After Tyus Jones declared for the draft the focus for Blue Devil fans went immediately to what the 2015-16 team would look like. The roster looked very strong, especially in the front court, but was lacking a true ball handling point guard.
