Duke transfer Jeremy Roach, arguably the best point guard in the transfer portal, announced his commitment to Baylor on Sunday.
Roach entered the portal Tuesday night, and it wasn’t long before Baylor emerged as the favorite for the senior guard. Arkansas, St. John’s, Kentucky, Villanova, Syracuse and others were quickly linked to Roach, but Scott Drew and the Bears won out.
Roach made his announcement in a post on Instagram.
A 6-foot-2 Virginia native, Roach started 108 games over four seasons with the Blue Devils, earning third-team All-ACC honors as a senior.
A former McDonald’s All American in the 2020 class, Roach was immediately thrust into an extended role in Durham, North Carolina. He averaged 8.7 points as a freshman and 8.6 points as a sophomore, coming on strong down the stretch of the 2021-22 campaign to help lead Duke to the Final Four.
