Duke freshman Jaemyn Brakefield got a chance to introduce himself to the Duke media and fan base Thursday morning in a Zoom interview that touched on a number of topics.
Brakefield is one of Duke’s six freshmen. His recruitment to Duke was less publicized than that of most of his classmates and he began the season somewhat under the radar.
But Brakefield was a major catch. He’s a native of Jackson, Mississippi but prepped at Huntington Prep in West Virginia. He was West Virginia’s Gatorade Player of the Year three times and was selected to play in the eventually-canceled Jordan Brand Classic.
