The potential Duke basketball recruit is currently ranked among the top five players in the 2026 recruiting class.
Duke head coach Jon Scheyer has extended numerous offers to top-tier five-star prospects in the 2026 cycle, a common approach for the program. One player under consideration for an offer is Christian Collins, a five-star forward from St. John Bosco High School in California. Collins plays alongside one of Scheyer’s early targets, five-star guard Brandon McCoy Jr.
According to 247Sports’ Dushawn London, Duke is planning to meet with the 6-foot-8, 200-pound Collins at his school on Monday.
“Christian Collins, McCoy’s teammate at St. John Bosco, has made impressive progress lately,” 247Sports’ Adam Finkelstein said in January, noting why Collins has caught Duke’s eye.
“With his long, athletic frame, Collins is becoming a more versatile forward. His rare mix of agility and size makes him a standout, and he has the potential to vie for the top spot in the 2026 class.”
Collins is currently ranked No. 5 overall, No. 1 among power forwards, and No. 3 in California in the 247Sports 2026 Composite rankings. He has already received more than a dozen offers, including from top programs such as Kansas, Alabama, Arizona, Southern Cal, Georgia Tech, Cal, and Louisville.
