Monster dunk and blk by SS. Duke got a really good one! Here’s a still of the blk. Dude plays with a really great motor and challenges everything at the rim!

Underrated Duke commit shines in Vegas

Montverde Academy (Fla.) senior Sean Stewart is ferocious and relentless on both ends of the floor. His offensive repertoire, including a silky midrange jumper

Ew.

You're our only hope in a post-Bidunga world.

Most athletic big man in Duke basketball history.

How did he beat Zion? He doesn’t seem very athletic to me.

How did he beat Zion? He doesn’t seem very athletic to me.

By jumping higher...

By being very athletic. Not sure what you've been watching.

You didn’t mistake him for one of the whites, did you?

He definitely thought the dorky looking guy named "TJ Power" was the cool looking guy named "Sean Stewart", and vice versa.

 

[dukeboy911]

Just might've. He doesn't seem anywhere near the athlete Zion is, so quite shocking Sean beats him in a measurable where I would've bet a lot of money on Zion. Good for us.

That doesn't sound right, but you might be on to something...

Well, he’s not as good an athlete as Zion. Because Zion was carrying 260 lbs and leaping and going as fast as he was.
But Stewart is a tremendous athlete in his own right, didn’t he win the McDonalds’ Dunk contest?

 

[rome8180]

He did. And Zion was more like 285 at Duke.

I am enamored. It's not just the vertical, but that he's also so insanely quick and active for his size. He's got the hips and acceleration of an NFL DB.

I feel like he's already looked pretty good on defense, and I feel confident that he's going to be a completely absurd rebounder once he hits his stride. His quickness lets him recover from help and get a step closer than he should be able to before jumping, and then his explosive/quick jump means his head is popping up near the rim in the mix for any given rebound. If there's a path for this team to have some margin for error on D, it's with him.

Not necessarily saying he's ready to be actually-good yet - still needs to figure out how to fit on offense, and that pivot-foot-shifting-without-dribbling was painful - but I'm pretty encouraged by the little things so far. The fact that he came in like 4 minutes in in game 2 is also a good sign.

It was weird though he never came back in after that
