After charging out of the gates as one of the most college-ready Duke freshmen of late alongside Paolo Banchero, Trevor Keels has cooled down a smidge from deep the past two games with a combined 3-for-13 clip. Even so, his top-shelf instincts and advanced skills have not vanished, meaning the 6-foot-5, 220-pound Maryland native should come in handy against Gonzaga.
Keels rarely turns the ball over, a result of his sheer strength and competitive nature. Plus, he commits remarkably few fouls in light of his team-high steals per game. And although he could test out a few more drives or mid-range jumpers rather than sometimes settling for contested 3-pointers, the 18-year-old’s shot selection and entire repertoire are well beyond his years.
Grade: 92 (A-)
