This is the first installment in Crazie Talk’s Official Recruiting Guide.

First up, we’ll  take a look at the two highly-touted McDonald’s All-Americans that comprise Duke’s incoming Class of 2013.

Ryan Kelly

6’10’’-210 lbs-PF. Rated 5-Stars by Scout.com

Ryan is an extremely gifted basketball player. He is a classic European-type forward with great touch and guard-like ball-handling skills. At 6’10″, Ryan was the winner of the McDonald’s All-American Three-Point Shooting contest, and his size and range will create significant matchup problems for opposing big men in the ACC. His ability to stretch defenses with the jump shot will truly pay dividends this year – especially in the wake of Gerald Henderson’s and Greg Paulus’ departures. Kelly’s work ethic and attitude fit the Duke fashion; he is a proven winner and dedicated competitor.

Look for Kelly to play a role similar to that of Mike Dunleavy on the 2001 Championship team. It will be no surprise if Ryan contributes in a big way next season.

Mason Plumlee

6’11’’-210 lbs-PF. Rated 5-Stars by Scout.com

Mason loves to dunk on everybody. And he can. [sidenote: Jake has been dunked on by both Plumlee brothers in high school, but Mason pulled out a reverse.] At 6’11″ and equipped with an enormous wingspan, Plumlee, the younger brother of current Devil Miles, is a gifted athlete. He is a true post player with excellent rebounding skills, but can also shoot from 15-feet, run the floor, and handle the ball very well. Because of his tendency to play on the block, Mason could possibly be an exception to the rule and work his way into the starting lineup this season.

Plumlee has uncommon work ethic and natural leadership ability. These traits, in addition to his overall basketball acuity, will make Mason an integral component of Duke’s success in the next four years.
