News of the trip comes just days after Duke Blue Devils On SI first reported budding mutual interest between the Blue Devils and Hawthorne, a West Virginia signee before decommitting back in late March.
Hawthorne, a 6-foot-8, 190-pound versatile forward stacking up at No. 105 overall and No. 1 in West Virginia on the 247Sports 2025 Composite, could serve as one of a few finishing pieces to a 2025-26 Duke basketball roster that already features an impressive mix of former top-shelf preps galore between the returning reserves and star-studded incoming rookies.
Meanwhile, though, as the fifth-highest ranked 2025 talent still up for grabs at this late juncture in the cycle, Hawthorne has attracted several other suitors, including at least two more from the ACC in Virginia Tech and Pitt.
The 247Sports Crystal Ball remains empty for the Braydon Hawthorne sweepstakes.
