Duke Blue Devils basketball lands their first 2026 recruit as Bryson Howard, son of NBA All-Star Josh Howard, commits to Jon Scheyer's program. The 6'5" sharpshooter from Texas shot an impressive 46% from three-point range during the EYBL season, joining Duke's storied tradition of elite left-handed scorers. National recruiting insider Brandon Jenkins from 247Sports and CBS breaks down Howard's rapid rise, analyzes five-star guard Deron Rippey Jr.'s strategic official visit tour that included watching Duke's comeback win at Tennessee, and discusses Duke's pursuit of top 2026 targets Cameron Williams and Jordan Smith Jr. The conversation extends to seven-foot prospects Maxime Meyer and Sayon Keita, plus a preview of AJ Williams, the nation's top-ranked player in the 2028 class. Jenkins also reviews freshman Cam Boozer's dominant exhibition performances, including a 24-point, 23-rebound masterpiece that has him tracking toward a historic season. Tune in for expert analysis on how Duke is building its future championship rosters across multiple recruiting classes.
