Off-season thoughts

Bronny 4yr. / 7.9mil

Sorry 3.9 off but he’s with them four years . We’re talking 4 million for possibly six months . Anyone would be crazy not to take that .
I want him to return but if he doesn’t I could understand.

Don’t get me wrong , college basketball is my sport but it’s gotten to out of control for me with the portal and NIL.

absolutely....in a hot second

 

[BOOGIEMAN1914]

oops..i see Evans up from 50% to 65%
SG: Evans...=)

woops read that wrong, they flipped portal/return.....#ugghhh

 

[kingbluedevil]

I can’t blame Evans at all if he leaves for 4 million dollars. NIL is way out of control, I know I would take the money and run if I was 19 years old. The future is an unknown and one bird in the hand is better than two in the bushes.

Yes definitely and no guarantee he is a starter at Duke. Lot of talent coming and he has his weaknesses he needs to work on

 

[christophero]

4 million is ten 401ks. You are set for life unless you start buying large yachts and living above your means. What would he make at Duke? maybe 2 to 3 million.

At this point, Harris, Pat, Brown, and Foster seem to be the for-sure returnees, with Evans and Proctor as the two question marks.

 

[dukecorey]

If Duke loses both Proctor and Evans then Jon needs to hit a home run on a portal guard or two depending on if they land Ament.

 

[christophero]

I got a similar vibe with Proctor as I got with Roach last year. Just didn't seem to interact with the team much, always had headphones on. At least in the videos I saw. Doesn't mean he didn't play hard or was a bad teammate, just something I picked up on. Hope he comes back.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

We're trying hard to retain as many of these guys as possible. Last year's squad had only two leading rotational players, and they built an incredible roster around Coop. I have faith that we will build around Cam for this team. Who that is remains to be seen.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Chris, you might be reaching a bit there. Proctor was definitely locked in and repeatedly spoke about how this was the closest team he had ever been a part of.

 

[christophero]

You're right. He may be an introvert. I am an introvert, so I notice these things. Unless I have Coor's then I am an extrovert. I want Tyrese back more than any other player (besides the obvious OADs) but I think he's gone.

This couldn’t be further and I mean further from the truth.

 

[christophero]

Fair enough. Shouldn't have said it.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

There's a ton of chatter out there; most of it seems to be malarkey.

 

[sheyduke]

Who knows at this point . One thing for sure is Duke has four Freshman coming in/ hopefully lol.
The rest who knows for sure but like stated I’m sure Duke had plans in place .

 

[bleediteveryday30]

We are back in business with five freshmen, 4-5 returnees, and a few high-impact transfers. I trust in Jon and this staff. I also trust the brilliant and attractive (with all respect in mind) Rachel Baker.

Life is too short to drink cheap beer!

Not the most promising name.

Are we actually after this one

 

[jeffrey236]

The first thing that jumps out at me is his size. Sounds like a Scheyer target!

 

[NCirishman]

Size matters 😂

Seriously size is the reason Lee was not pursued.

 

[christophero]

He looks like Evans in the highlights. 6-6 senior, good rebounder. 17ppg 7 rebounds. I say yes, especially if Evans and/or Proctor leave. Solid defender, thin but not Evans thin.

 

[sheyduke]

Are we even speaking with him? Or are recruits using Duke to up their NIL package ? Hopefully things start coming out after Easter .

 

[bullcity gamer]

has gary transferred to rupp’s idiots yet?

 

[The_Only_Blue]

Thank you Kon

 

[christophero]

Enjoyed watching him play. Good luck Kon. Seems like a great kid.

 

[dukecorey]

First of many decisions to come, best of luck Kon enjoyed watching you at Duke.

 

[BOOGIEMAN1914]

Kongrats young man‼️

 

[JimboSlice00]

Kon was the man. Parents raised a good kid.

 

[Duke Blu]

I need a quick guard who is 99.9999 % from the free throw line and 100% from the line in crunch time, who is impossible to prevent from getting open and getting the ball when trying to inbound it, somebody that WANTS it. I need Tyus Jones DNA also known as an Ass Nailer. Thanks.

 

[dadecodevil]

Expect an announcement from Proctor tomorrow, maybe Slim as well.

 

[Willcampbell]

Thanks for stopping by, Kon.
OFC

 

[dukesince91]

Kon was great. Imagine his stat line if he had to carry more of the load. I think he easily wins ACC Freshman of the Year award and maybe National.

 

[pisgah101]

Crazy to think last offseason we were discussing if kon or Harris would get time
