4-star guard Cassius Stanley commits to Duke

Four-star guard Cassius Stanley committed to Duke on Monday, adding a prime talent to another elite recruiting class for the Blue Devils.

Five-star forward Matthew Hurt committed on Friday, and he and Stanley join previous top-40 commits Vernon Carey Jr., Wendell Moore, and Boogie Ellis in heading to Durham.

Point guard Tre Jones also decided to return for his sophomore year.

Stanley, a 6-foot-5 shooting guard from suburban Los Angeles, is an explosive athlete with a strong handle. He averaged 17.2 points per game as a senior at Sierra Canyon High School.
