The next Flying Knueppel, Kager, is going to commit to a college relatively soon, and Duke is definitely interested, and Jon Scheyer has offered.
Generally listed at 6-7 but also as high as 6-10, like his brother Kon, Kager has a great stroke from outside.
Duke, of course, is not the only school interested. Wisconsin is sniffing around, naturally (the Knueppels are from Milwaukee), and Kagerās uncle, Tod Kowalczyk, coaches Toledo.
Thereās a long way to go for the next Knueppel, and thereās no guarantee that heāll follow Kon to Duke, but itād be cool if he did. We saw the Plumlee brothers, the Jones brothers, and last season, the Boozer brothers. Having more Knueppels would be great.
Duke and Wisconsin are among the schools interested in Kager Knueppel, along with Toledo, where his uncle coaches.
