Duke basketball coach [autotag]Jon Scheyer[/autotag] and his program received yet another commitment on Saturday when five-star forward Shelton Henderson joined the Blue Devils’ 2025 recruiting class.
As a result, Duke remained atop the 247Sports’ team recruiting rankings for the Class of 2025.
Henderson is the 15th overall player and the third-ranked small forward in the 247Sports player rankings, meaning all four of Scheyer’s commitments rank within the top 21.
The two most notable members of the class are the Boozer twins, led by No. 2 overall player Cameron Boozer and No. 21 overall player and fourth-ranked point guard Cayden Boozer. Power forward Nikolas Khamenia (No. 19) joined them in late October.
“Duke has been my dream school since I started watching basketball,” Henderson said in a story from 247Sports’ Brandon Jenkins. “I liked Coach Scheyer, Coach Lucas, and the environment. Both coaches told me what they see in me. They feel I can come in and fit right away.”
“I like the atmosphere that they have and the players that they have sent to the NBA. That is my dream, so if they can do it with them, they can do with me.”
The Blue Devils sit ahead of the Kentucky Wildcats, Connecticut Huskies, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, and LSU Tigers in the 2025 team rankings. Scheyer also finished with the No. 1 class in 2022 and 2024.
