Duke signs Plumlee after he gets release from Stanford

DURHAM, N.C. (AP) -- Duke has a late addition to Mike Krzyzewski's incoming recruiting class for the fall.

The school has signed Miles Plumlee, a 6-foot-10 forward who had committed to Stanford. Plumlee received his release from the school after Trent Johnson left to coach at LSU, and Duke completed paperwork to make Plumlee's addition official Thursday.

He averaged about 16 points and seven rebounds last season for Christ School in Arden, N.C. He'll join Elliot Williams and Olek Czyz as freshmen this fall and provides the Blue Devils with some needed size up front.
