Dukes has intensity when he plays. He books it out to the sideline, but will need to work on his explosiveness in pursuit. At the rate he is growing, Dukes could be a lot closer to 270 going into his senior year, maybe even more since he likes cooking, and already got the frame to add more weight. Maybe his culinary interest and weight gain will continue, but either way there is some legit potential here based off frame and energy alone. Dukes is a solid recruit who has proven to be a hard worker and made nice progress throughout his HS career. He’s played well his junior and senior year, and progressed about how we would expect, but did think his weight lifting number would see bigger gains. That puts a little bit of a higher ceiling than college evaluators are missing, and he should be over 300 lbs. at the next level with the proper time in the gym.
