One-time Kentucky target Derryck Thornton will be a Duke Blue Devil and he will skip his senior year of high school to speed up that process. Thornton committed to Duke today and will jump to the 2015 class, where Scout.com ranks him as the No. 1 point guard. ESPN has him as the No. 3 point guard and No. 17 player overall. Duke is also in the lead for five-star small forward Brandon Ingram, another UK target, and Coach K already has signatures from five-star center Chase Jeter and five-star shooting guard Luke Kennard. Needless to say, Kryswkeskwiski has gone full Calipari. We'll see them in Chicago on November 17.
