SG Bryan Antoine, Ranney School

A teammate of the previously mentioned Scottie Lewis, five-star Bryan Antoine is a top-10 recruit in his own right. An elite shooting guard from New Jersey, he is regarded as the No. 7 recruit in the class and the top two-guard. At 6-foot-5, he has above-average to play off-ball and scores at a high rate from anywhere on the floor.

In 32 games this past season, Antoine averaged 21.1 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game for Ranney High School. He has been equally as impressive on the AAU circuit, putting up 15.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game while shooting over 40% from beyond the arc. He is playing for Team Rio.

Duke has been all over Antoine since the beginning of his recruitment, offering him way back on July 21, 2017. Getting started early seems to have helped the Blue Devils as they look to be the favorite to secure the commitment of Antoine at some point down the road.

His current final five consists of Duke, Florida, Kentucky, Kansas, and Villanova. Of this group, Duke currently holds 12 crystal ball predictions while Villanova has two and Kentucky has one. The lead recruiter for the Blue Devils, in this case, is Coach Scheyer.
