Kyrie Irving Picks Duke

Kyrie Irving picks Duke as his college of choice to play basketball.

This young recruit is very talented and wanted by colleges. There is no relation to Julius Irving (I was pondering that myself). Word is out that he has committed to Duke.

The 6-foot-2, 175-pound Irving is the No. 4 point guard in the Class of 2010 and the No. 9 overall player, according to Rivals.com.

Irving is the sixth-ranked player in the nation, and the country’s second-best point guard according to Scout.com.

This should add a lot of depth to the Duke incoming freshman on the roster. He will be added to the 2010 Duke recruiting class that also includes four-star forward Josh Hairston and four-star point guard Tyler Thornton. Andre Dawkins, who was initially included in the 2010 class, enrolled early, and will play for head coach Mike Krzyzewski this season.

Watch out for Duke next year!
