List of 10 potential 2022 Duke basketball recruits: AJ Casey

2022 Top247 ranking: No. 36

School: Tinley Park High School (Ill.)

Significant offers: DePaul, Illinois, Kansas

A scout’s take (Rivals recruiting experts Eric Bossi and Corey Evans): “Skilled big man put himself on the map because of his size and versatile offensive game. Now, his athleticism is catching up to his skill while he cements himself as a top big in the sophomore class.”

Duke-related chatter: At this point, there has been no word of any contact between the recruiters in Durham and AJ Casey. However, considering the fact the composite five-star comes across as a bright kid in the above interview and hails from the Duke recruiting hotbed of Chicago, one would imagine someone on Mike Krzyzewski’s staff is aware of his name.
