Kevon Looney chooses UCLA

Duke's 2014 recruiting class is still an army of one.

Forward Kevon Looney announced his commitment to UCLA at Milwaukee Hamilton High School Thursday afternoon. Looney did not have the announcement televised and his decision was live tweeted by his high school's Twitter account.

A 6-foot-8 forward, Looney is the No. 11 ranked player in the class, according to ESPN. Looney was also considering Duke, Florida, Michigan State, Tennessee and Wisconsin. The Blue Devils had been seen as heavy favorites for most of the recruiting process, although Looney was notoriously quiet with the media from start to finish.

Grayson Allen, a combo guard, is Duke's only commit thus far.

Looney was viewed as potential replacement for Jabari Parker and Rodney Hood, should they choose to leave Duke early and go pro after this season. His ESPN scouting report describes him as "a combination of great athletic ability, length and skill. Can excel at a high level from either forward position. He must add strength but his upside is tremendous."

Looney took his official visit to Duke in September and said he had a "great experience."

Looney's decision may affect the choice of forward Reid Travis, who will announce Nov. 8. Travis is thought to favor Duke, Stanford or his home-state school of Minnesota, with Gonzaga and Notre Dame also in the mix.

Duke is still awaiting the two most highly touted players in the class to say when they are going to announce. Jahlil Okafor and Tyus Jones, who officially visited campus last weekend, are expected to make that decision sometime in the coming weeks. Okafor, a center, and Jones, a point guard, are the No. 1 and No. 4 ranked players in the class of 2014, respectively. They have said repeatedly they intend to play college ball together, with Duke and Kansas the most likely destinations to make that happen. Justise Winslow, who also officially visited last weekend, may join the duo, though that is far from a certainty.
