Duke is interested in landing point guard Nijel Pack, who recently entered the transfer portal, according to CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein. The former Kansas State star was named first-team All-Big 12 in 2022.
Along with Tennessee, Rothstein originally reported that Gonzaga, Arizona, Purdue, Xavier, Miami, Ohio State, NC State and Marquette are all interested in Pack. The budding star entered the transfer portal after coach Bruce Weber was replaced with longtime Baylor assistant Jerome Tang. The team finished 14–17 this past year.
Pack led the Wildcats in scoring at 17.4 points per game while also contributing 3.
