Mohamed Bamba, the 7-footer from the PSA Cardinals and the Westtown (Pa.) School, is working with a group of seven schools and met with two of them on Tuesday, sources said.
The No. 2-ranked power forward in the Class of 2017, Bamba is considering Duke, Kentucky, UConn, Michigan, Syracuse, Texas and Harvard, although he never announced a formal cut.
Bamba met Tuesday at the Westtown School with Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski and his staff, and UConn coach Kevin Ollie and his, sources said.
“Duke has a very rich history with Coach K,” Bamba said in July. “I think one of the biggest things that stand out to me about Duke is that all of their assistant coaches have played for Coach K at some point. That’s big. That shows that they’re a family.”
He previously met with Kentucky on Sept. 9 and Syracuse and Michigan on Sept. 14, with Harvard and Texas due in on Thursday.
Bamba recently took an official visit to Michigan and also visited Harvard. He visited UConn over the summer.
Bamba helped the USA U18 team win a gold medal this summer, and also helped the PSA Cardinals make the Peach Jam finals.
He is projected as a top-3 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.
