And this week, the Blue Devils were among a handful of programs that had a representative on hand to check in on the 6-foot-4, 170-pound five-star guard.

McCoy, an explosive playmaker who ranks No. 1 overall on the 247Sports 2026 Composite and officially landed on the Duke basketball wishlist in late July, also welcomed Arkansas, Arizona, SMU, Washington, and UCLA to his school, national recruiting insider Adam Zagoria reported on Saturday afternoon.

Jon Scheyer has landed at least one top-five prospect in two of his first three recruiting cycles as head coach, including the No. 1 overall prospect in the 2024 class in current Blue Devil freshman forward Cooper Flagg.

Duke is one of four bluebloods who have already entered the fray for Brandon McCoy Jr.
