Duke has locked in its second member of the 2024 class and it’s a skilled scorer from Charlotte who draws comparisons to another in-state former Blue Devil.

Isaiah Evans committed to Duke on Thursday night. He officially visited Duke about two weeks ago and was offered in early March.

The 6-6, 170-pounder who plays at North Mecklenburg has a similar body type to Brandon Ingram, who was ACC rookie of the year for the 2015-16 season with the Blue Devils and has become an All-Star with the New Orleans Pelicans.

Despite the thin frame, Evans uses his length well and has a long wingspan that allows him to play above his weight.

Evans is a gifted scorer who had a 62-point game in the state playoffs this past season.

Evans joins Darren Harris, another gifted shooter who projects as a 2-guard or wing, in Duke’s Class of 2024. Harris committed to the Blue Devils back in late October.
