    Kyrie Irving has two schools in mind for official visits.

    “Duke and Indiana are definite officials I’m gonna see,” Irving said Tuesday by text.

    Irving first made the comments to Dave Telep of Scout.

    Irving has said he plans to take all five officials, meaning three would be left for the group that includes Kentucky, Georgia Tech, UConn, Notre Dame, Virginia, Texas A&M and Seton Hall.

    The 6-foot-1 Irving just returned from Oregon, where he was named MVP of the Nike Global Challenge. He averaged 21.3 points and 4.3 assists at the event

    “I was down in Orlando with him and he’s really taken it to another level since then,” said St. Patrick assistant coach Rae Miller.

    Irving is taking a much needed day off from hoops on Tuesday, seeing a Broadway show in Manhattan, according to his Twitter feed.

    “This is the only time I actually get to relax,” he wrote.

    Irving, who plans on majoring in journalism in college, will play in the Boost Mobile Elite 24 event Aug. 21 in Harlem’s famed Rucker Park.
