BUZZ ON THE RECRUITING TRAIL: Besides using “dream school” to describe the university in Durham, Sunrise Christian (Kan.) point guard Kennedy Chandler, No. 12 on the 247Sports 2021 Composite, tweeted last week his open-run highlights while wearing Duke shorts. Of his other finalists — Memphis, North Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee — the Volunteers drum up the most chatter. But the Blue Devils have one target at the point. Chances are he chooses the dream.

SCOUTING REPORT from 247Sports director of scouting Jerry Meyer: “Plays with surprising strength and exceptional explosive athleticism at 6-1. Regularly gets to the rim. Draws fouls at a high rate. Tremendous passer on the move. Adequate three-point shooter but plenty room for improvement. Creative finisher off the dribble. Rebounds position and is a disruptive defender.”
