Duke Adds Third Player to 2016 Recruiting Class After Javin DeLaurier Commitment

Coming off of his official visit to Duke over the weekend, 4-star recruit Javin DeLaurier recently committed to join Mike Krzyzewski and the Blue Devils for the 2016-17 season shortly after seeing the campus and meeting players and coaches from the team. DeLaurier is a 6-8, 215 pound power forward who is most known for his athleticism and high motor on the court.

It’s been a wild couple of weeks for Duke Men’s Basketball recruit Javin DeLaurier. He received a scholarship offer from Coach K a little over a week ago, and then the coaching staff and DeLaurier decided to reschedule his official visit to Duke from October 24th to this past weekend, and the Charlottesville, VA native immediately committed to join the Blue Devils after taking his official visit, saying he knew he wanted to attend and texted his mom shortly after arriving on Friday after dinner and visiting Cameron Indoor Stadium.
