Welcome to Duke, Semi Ojeleye!

Post by Native » September 9th, 2012, 9:21 pm

We just landed a commitment from Semi Ojeleye, the 32nd-ranked player in the Class of 2013! Very versatile 6'6" wing. Tough, tough defender. Has drawn some comparisons on recruiting boards to Brian Davis.

Ranked No. 32 in the class of 2013, Ojeleye is a very difficult matchup for most opponents. He has the ability to score around the rim, but is also comfortable taking 3-pointers from the perimeter. Ojeleye improved his off-the-dribble game, and was able to create his own shot consistently during the spring and summer. At the Peach Jam in July, Ojeleye attempted the third-most free-throw attempts of anyone in the tournament, and also averaged 17.6 points per game.

Ojeleye is a talented addition to the program. While he has long been considered a Duke lean, it is nice he went ahead and pulled the trigger. His athleticism will be a welcome addition.

I love when we get a recruit that doesn't care to go through the long drawn out torture session for fans that it seems is becoming more popular these days. :happy-bouncyblue: :duke:
