Possible 2022 Duke basketball targets with bumps in rankings: Jaden Bradley

6-foot-3. Jaden Bradley. PG. player. Pick Analysis. 170 pounds. 434. Scouting Report

Rise on 2022 Top247: One spot, from No. 12 to No. 11 overall (No. 1 among point guards)

Composite ranking: No. 7 overall

High school: IMG Academy (Fla.)

Scouting report (from Rivals analysts Corey Evans and Eric Bossi, who in February ranked him No. 39 among all current prep prospects at the time): “Even though he’s just a sophomore, he’s put himself in the upper echelon of floor generals. Has good size, can score it, and is getting more and more athletic.”

Offers to date: More than two dozen total, notably from Florida State, Kansas, Louisville, Michigan, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas Tech

Why Duke may join the race: Though the Tar Heels may be the early favorites for the North Carolina native, Bradley has hinted at being in absolutely no hurry with the recruitment process. Back in December, a few Duke basketball assistants traveled to South Carolina to scout the five-star. And he was one of the first in his class to hear from the Blue Devils last month. Heck, his speed alone should attract an offer from Mike Krzyzewski before long.
