Most reports of Cedric Coward's commitment to Duke basketball head coach Jon Scheyer and his staff on Monday evening are not worded correctly. After all, the Blue Devils have not actually "landed" the former Washington State and Eastern Washington forward just yet.

In addition to another top-ranked recruiting class coming in, Duke has had one player commit out of the portal as of April 28 — but there’s a catch.

In Duke's first portal move of the offseason, 6-foot-6 Washington State graduate transfer Cedric Coward announced his commitment April 28 via Instagram.
