Five-star point guard Frank Jackson commits to Duke

Posted Sep 1, 2015
Tyus Jones’s decision to declare for the NBA draft left Duke without a true point guard for the upcoming season. Less than five months later, the Blue Devils has added two five-star prospects at the position. One, Derryck Thornton, decided in April to reclassify to 2015. The other, Frank Jackson, became the second member of Duke’s 2016 recruiting class when he announced his commitment to the program on Tuesday. (Sports Illustrated)
