Five-star recruit Wendell Moore committed to Duke on Monday, giving head coach Mike Krzyzewski his first commitment for the class of 2019. The Concord, N.C. native chose Duke over ACC rivals North Carolina, N.C. State and Wake Forest.

Moore is one of 13 five-star recruits for 2019 to verbally commit to a school, per Rivals. Of the 13 commits, two have opted to go to the ACC, with North Carolina nabbing center Armando Bacot and N.C. State earning a commitment from point guard Jalen Lecque. Kentucky and Arizona are currently the only schools with multiple five-star commitments.
