Duke lands five-star forward prospect Tatum

Five-star prospect Jayson Tatum verbally committed to Duke on Sunday. Tatum is ranked third in 247Sports' composite rankings.

The 6-foot-8 forward picked Duke over countless other programs -- among them Kentucky, North Carolina and his hometown Saint Louis Billikens, none of which could overcome the power and tradition of the reigning national champions led by Hall of Fame coach Mike Krzyzewski.
