TitanSlim Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 (edited) This appears to be very likable Duke team this year. The ball movement (19 assists on 27 made FGs), hustle/effort and defense was extremely encouraging to see in game 1. Can’t wait to see Lively and Whitehead added to the mix. Lively adding that interior defensive presence and Whitehead hopefully being the one star player of the team will be exactly what the team needs.

Mark Mitchell was probably the most overlooked player in the country coming into this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even know who your starting 2 guard is coming into this season, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really is like a baby Siakam. He’s going to have a major impact for us this year. Just a exhibition and a regular season game and he’s quickly shot up as a favorite of mine.

I think so. Mitchell has to start imo, his energy is too infectious not to. I am intrigued by a Roach-Proctor-Whitehead-Mitchell-Lively lineup with Flip manning the bench unit tho.

No idea who that is, but I'm sure he got cooked at our secret scrimmage. Duke's backcourt of Roach/Proctor will be the best in the country in March.

Went 0-fer (0-8, 0-4 from 3) including missing a point blank layup. Was active on defense tho. I’m not worried tho, he’ll be fine. Especially once Whitehead takes some pressure off him. Jaylen Blakes was the surprise. He looked like he could legit gives us an effective 10 minutes off the bench.

I love Mark Mitchell. I wish he would've gone to literally any of his other offers so I could root for him lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
