Chris Duarte, sleeper JC guard, commits to Oregon Ducks basketball

The Oregon Ducks men's basketball program is on the board with its 2019 recruiting class.

On Thursday, Oregon landed a commitment from Northwest Florida State guard Chris Duarte.

The 6-foot-6 guard, originally out of the Dominican Republic, was a first-team all-conference selection as freshman, averaging 12.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 2 steals per game.

"NWF State helped me grow as a player on and off the court," Duarte told the Northwest Florida State athletic website. "I want to thank all of the staff who has helped me become the player I need to be to play at a Division-1 program like Oregon.
