One could argue this weekend’s Nike Hoop Summit previews 80 percent of the 2025 Duke basketball class. After all, the collection of talent on the Team USA roster includes three of the Blue Devils’ four early signees, and another of the heralded preps on hand, Highland School (Va.) five-star forward Nate Ament, may well be leaning toward Durham as his landing spot next season.Meanwhile, it appears the highest-ranked Duke basketball prize in the cycle, Columbus High School (Fla.) five-star forward Cameron Boozer, is doing his part in trying to sway Ament to the Blue Devils.
“So, I just want to know, how is your recruiting process going with that school?” Boozer asked Ament in the following sitdown chat on Saturday, courtesy of NBA TV’s Krysten Peek, after reminding the 6-foot-9, 185-pound phenom of his comments about getting along well with future Blue Devils on the practice court at the prestigious showcase event in Portland, Ore.
