Australian point guard Luke Paul has committed to Duke University for the 2027-28 season, adding a highly regarded international prospect to the Blue Devils’ future roster plans.
The 17-year-old guard is viewed as a projected lottery pick for the 2028 NBA Draft, making his commitment one of the notable early recruiting developments tied to that class.
A future backcourt addition for Duke
Paul’s decision gives Duke a long-term backcourt piece as the program continues to attract top-level talent from both the United States and abroad. His commitment is set for the 2027-28 college basketball season.
Duke has long been one of college basketball’s premier destinations for elite prospects, and Paul’s pledge continues that trend with another international guard joining the program’s pipeline.
