4-star forward Sebastian Wilkins reclassifies up, commits to Duke men's basketball - The Chronicle

Published 13 hours ago2 minute read

The Blue Devils just got another one.

Four-star forward Sebastian Wilkins announced his commitment to Duke May 23 via the 247 Sports Youtube channel. The next piece of head coach Jon Scheyer’s freshman class fell into place after five-star Shelton Henderson’s decommitment April 17 led to Wilkins’ reclassification back to the class of 2025, which will allow the Wolfeboro, N.H., native to come to Durham after his fourth year in high school. 

The 6-foot-8 forward was named First Team All-Conference in the Nike EYBL Scholastic Conference Tournament, winning the honor alongside Houston recruit Isiah Harwell. Formerly ranked the No. 31 player in 247 Sports' class of 2026 rankings, the Brewster Academy product chose to join The Brotherhood above an offer from Maryland. 

"I'm trying to bring a national championship to Cameron," Wilkins said in his announcement broadcast.

Wilkins brings a balanced skillset to Duke; New Hampshire’s top recruit boasts effective shooting alongside his solid defense and reliable rebounding potential. The forward led his school to the semifinals of this year’s Chipotle Nationals before falling in a 47-45 barnburner to Columbus – the tournament’s eventual champions — led by Wilkins' future classmates Cameron and Cayden Boozer. 

Alongside Boozer and Harvard-Westlake product Nikolas Khamenia, Wilkins completes an impressive freshman frontcourt.
