Five-Star Duke Commit Reacts to Big Announcement Before Freshman Season
The Duke Blue Devils had another successful college basketball season under head coach Jon Scheyer and company.
Duke won four games in the NCAA Tournament, defeating Alabama, Arizona, Baylor and Mount St.
Mary's.
Despite that, the Blue Devils suffered a loss to Houston in the Final Four, ending their season moments away from a national title appearance.
As Scheyer and the rest of his staff at Duke prepare the Blue Devils for another Final Four appearance, the next wave of players is set to hit campus.
One of those incoming players is blue-chip recruit Nikolas Khamenia, who was recently featured in the final rankings list of 247Sports' basketball post.
Khamenia is ranked as the No.
15 overall player and the No.
3 small forward in the class of 2025, per 247Sports.
Upon the release of the 247Sports five-star rankings announcement, Khamenia shared his thoughts.
"Blessings," Khamenia said.

Before committing to Duke, Khamenia received plenty of interest from powerhouse programs, such as North Carolina, Arizona, UCLA and Gonzaga.
