Goodluck Okonoboh tweeted Tuesday afternoon that he had cut his list of schools to five. Duke, Florida, Indiana, Ohio State and UNLV remain in contention to land Okonoboh, ranked the No. 19 recruit in the Class of 2014 by ESPN.

The Boston native measured 6-foot-10 and 213 pounds at the LeBron James Skills Academy earlier in the summer. He has a wingspan of 7 feet, 2 1/2 inches, which makes him one of the top shot-blocking threats in his recruiting class.
Okonoboh is one of many talented big men being courted by Duke for their 2014 recruiting class. The Blue Devils have also offered scholarships to Jahlil Okafor and Myles Turner, both of whom are vaunted for their post presence and shot-blocking abilities as well. Okonoboh has yet to set his official visits, but could take trips to all five schools on his list in the fall.
