Class of 2025 five-star small forward Dwayne Aristode completed official visits to USC and Duke this past week.
Aristode — the 6-foot-7, 185-pound small forward from Amsterdam, the Netherlands and the Expressions Elite AAU program — says he’s now “probably” done taking visits. He’s seen Michigan State in addition to USC and Duke this fall, and last year he saw Wake Forest and Arizona officially. He’s also taken unofficial visits to both UCLA (2023) and USC this summer.
He now has a top list via his Instagram page, which includes Arizona, Duke, Michigan State, USC and the NBL Next Star’s.
“All the colleges have great coaching staffs, great programs and good people,” Aristode said via text. “I got to know about their philosophy and brand.”
Aristode still doesn’t have an idea on a decision timeline. He previously gave some thoughts on the programs mentioned above. Those stories can be found here and here.
Next thing coming up for Aristode on the court is his senior season at Brewster Academy.
“I’m very excited,” Aristode said. “We are the best team in the country, according to me. We’re winning the championship this year. That’s what is expected after last year not making it. Gave us motivation for this year.”
