Duke basketball target Vernon Carey Jr. already looks like a guy who could more than hold his own in the NBA. Before the 6-foot-10, 275-pound center arrives in the league, though, he will choose a college to attend for one season.
And that school could be the one in Durham, N.C.
Carey Jr., listed by the composite ranking at 247Sports as the No. 2 overall prospect in the 2019 class, has already announced that he will visit Duke during its Countdown to Craziness on Oct. 19.
On Wednesday evening, though, the 17-year-old southpaw extended an invitation for Mike Krzyzewski and his staff to visit his home in Southwest Ranches, Fla.
