Duke basketball staff wisely targets 2020 version of Javin DeLaurier

Dylan Cardwell is far from a perfect prospect. But his solid frame, mobility, and character — paired with a potentially bare cupboard of returning post presences on the 2020-21 roster in Durham — make him a perfect Duke basketball target at the moment.

Logically, Mike Krzyzewski and his staff have painted a picture of a possible future for the three-star center by making contact, per Cardwell from an interview by USA Today’s Jason Jordan.

Wisely, though, by not yet extending an offer to the rising talent, the coaches have given him a dash of added incentive to continue improving his game.
