US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has cancelled visas for all South Sudanese passport holders residing in the US, putting Khaman Maluach’s NBA draft future in jeopardy. The move is reportedly due to South Sudan’s government failing to accept its repatriated citizens in a timely manner. Maluach, a Duke University basketball star and projected first-round pick, could be deported if the measure is enforced. A university spokesperson has confirmed that Duke is looking into the situation and working to understand the implications for their students. The NCAA’s Final Four matchup was held hours before Rubio announced the measure.
