JUST IN: Top-Ranked Five-Star Recruit for 2025; Shelton Henderson, Pledges Commitment to Duke Blue Devils Men’s Basketball Over High-Profile Offers From Tennessee, Kentucky, and Texas Longhorns

The Duke Blue Devils have landed a major commitment from Shelton Henderson, a top-ranked five-star prospect in the 2025 recruiting class. Henderson, a highly sought-after guard, chose Duke over elite programs like Tennessee, Kentucky, and Texas, marking a huge victory for head coach Jon Scheyer and the Blue Devils’ recruiting efforts.

Standing at 6-foot-5, Henderson is known for his explosive scoring ability, strong defense, and playmaking skills. His ability to impact the game on both ends of the floor makes him a perfect fit for Duke’s high-intensity, fast-paced style of play.

“Duke has always been a program I’ve admired,” Henderson said. “Coach Scheyer and his staff have a vision for me, and I’m excited to join one of the most prestigious programs in college basketball.”
