5 takeaways from Duke basketball secret scrimmage against Villanova

Fourth takeaway from Duke basketball secret scrimmage against Villanova

This takeaway is more of just a reminder that Paolo Banchero is a stud.

The reports are that the Seattle, Washington native went for 29 points and 12 rebounds throughout the course of the afternoon, reaffirming all the headlines and honors he is receiving prior to the season.

Banchero was named as the first player in ACC history to be the Preseason Player of the Year and Freshman of the Year as well as being named to the Karl Malone Watch List.

Duke will rely on its supporting cast this season, but there will be games that Banchero wins on his own, and he could be in store for one of the best freshman seasons in Duke basketball history.

The Blue Devils could go as far as Paolo Banchero will take them this year.
