His lethal jumpshot is on display and should provide the Duke offense with more spacing, adding to the lethality that Jon Scheyer’s team should roll out behind returning players such as Kyle Filipowski, Jeremy Roach, Mark Mitchell, and Tyrese Proctor.

His acumen will be a key factor in his early success, as he continues to demonstrate a keen understanding of when to take the shot or make the extra pass. This kind of adaptability that the McDonald’s All-American has shown bodes well for him and the team as a whole.
