Luke Kennard, the No. 24 player in the Class of 2015 according to ESPN, will announce his decision at 7:45 p.m., according to his Twitter.
Kennard, a 6-foot-5 shooting guard, could become Duke's first commit in the Class of 2015. According to his Crystal Ball predictions on 247sports.com, 67% of the contributing writers believe he will select the Blue Devils, with 24% favoring Kentucky and 4% favoring each of Ohio State and Michigan. He is also considering Louisville, North Carolina and Florida.
He will make his announcement at his Franklin High School, where he won the Gatorade Boys Basketball Player of the Year award last week. He averaged 40 points, 10.4 rebounds and four assists per game this year.
Kennard officially visited Duke for the North Carolina game in March, watching the Blue Devils win 93-81 in their regular-season finale. Center Myles Turner (2014) and power forward Chase Jeter (2015) also officially visited that weekend while a number of other players took unofficial visits.
