A longtime Duke basketball target will soon reveal his college destination.
In early June, Westtown (Pa.) center Dereck Lively became one of the first Duke basketball offer recipients in his class. And the 7-foot-1, 220-pound five-star then took three official visits: to Chapel Hill, Lexington, and Durham.
So it made sense that Lively pitted the Tar Heels, Wildcats, and Blue Devils against each other this summer when he named his seven finalists: Duke, Florida State, Kentucky, Michigan, Penn State, Southern Cal, and UNC.
