The Duke basketball staff is reportedly eyeing a stretch-four from Finland.

Currently, 75 of the top 100 prospects on the 247Sports 2021 Composite have already committed to a school, including Duke basketball pledges Paolo Banchero and AJ Griffin, a pair of five-star forwards who rank No. 3 and No. 6, respectively. Plus, it seems just about all of those who haven’t made up their minds have named finalists.

Therefore, it’s no surprise that a heralded foreign teen has seen several high-major offers and blueblood interest within the two weeks since his move to the United States.
