  1. Yep Jaden needs to play at least 19 minutes a game he will be so good if he plays those type of minutes he will average 7.3 points 3.2 rebounds 1.1 assist Blakes also needs to play as well

  2. A lot of great ball movement from everybody playing like a complete team and ain’t even got Kyle back can’t wait💙😈

  3. Man Proctor is on another level 😮‍💨Mark Mitchell and Sean Stewart are going to have a field day this year. I love this team

  4. Tyrese’s shooting and athleticism look much improved. If he’s consistently shooting the ball well then he’s literally unstoppable.

  5. Proc needs to learn to be aggressive like he was from the jump. He only hits another gear once he gets a few but once he does damn. No one stopping that man

  6. From this scrimmage rankings

    Mark Mitchell
    Tyrese Proctor

    Filipowski not even here 😊

  7. The minutes distribution will be interesting this year. Guys like Flip, Mark, and Proctor are probably over 30 minutes a game which doesn't leave a lot of minutes in the frontcourt but I can't see how you keep Sean and Ryan from getting a lot of burn as well. In the backcourt you have so many options with Proctor, Roach, McCain, Foster, Schutt. Although I imagine Schutt isn't going to get many minutes even with high 3 guard lineup units. I think most of those minutes are going to previously listed guys and Power. I can't see how Reeves (who looks improve and is just huge), Schutt, nor Blakes will get many minutes this year.

    I hate to say it but I think Blakes probably should have hit the portal this year. He is going into his junior season with no prospects of starting and he has younger guys who are superior to him. I guess he could possibly get a lot of minutes as a senior if Duke lost Roach, Proctor, and the 2 freshman after this year but even in that scenario I would think Schutt would still be ahead of him and Duke would probably bring in backcourt help via the portal. I think Reeves will get some good minutes next year when Duke looses Ryan, Flip, Mark, and possibly Sean and even if we do get Bidunga and/or Ngongba.

  8. Stewart looks like a star

    Its going to be hard to manage the minutes this season.

    Hopefully some of these guys are fine with riding the bench and coming back to star next year.

  9. Proctor Looks Like Best Player on the DUKE team with Stewart potentially being a Big Contributor inside. Mitchell, Young and Roach Look Solid. McCain looks Raw and Schutt will be still fighting for minutes. Head Coach Scheyer has said this DUKE team will play at a higher tempo with some three Guard lineups which will require a 9-10 player rotation.

  10. Mitchell and Proctor both look great. Of the freshmen, Foster and Stewart jumped out the most to me.
