Duke Offers 2027 Forward Kager Knueppel

The offer opens Duke’s 2027 recruiting board with a legacy target.

Overview

  • Duke’s scholarship offer to Kager Knueppel, a top 2027 forward, was publicized by his AAU program Team Herro on social media.
  • 247Sports reporter John Watson, as cited by ClutchPoints, says Knueppel is the first player in the 2027 class to receive a Duke offer.
  • Knueppel plays for Wisconsin Lutheran High School in Milwaukee and on Nike’s EYBL circuit with Team Herro, and he remains uncommitted heading into his senior year.
  • Team Herro listed him at 6-foot-10 and highlighted his early EYBL shooting form, noting a 54% mark from three after the first Atlanta session.
  • He already holds offers reported from Purdue, Toledo, and Wisconsin, and he is the younger brother of former Duke one-and-done Kon Knueppel, now with the Hornets after finishing second to Cooper Flagg in Rookie of the Year voting.
