Player Trevon Duval

[DurhamSon]

Could just be that the 2015 HS recruiting class was an epic bust, at least in terms of college impact. Obviously Ingram and Kennard were great, but you get a combined 3 years out of them. Unfortunate that the other two kids from that class, the ones who were supposed to be veteran program guys, were massively overrated by scouts coming out of HS.

Refresh my memory what papa Jeter said? Seems I remember something but never found out what it was. Something about lying to him, maybe?

absolutely

Trevon might be the greatest terrible shooting PG in basketball history.

I can't imagine a basketball player with a shot that broken being better.

I want Toph to engage in another twitter war with De Thr's uncle/trainer

Oh man, this sounds like a fun way to kill time at Christmas when I'm drunk on egg nog and have enough Synergy data to go scorched earth

Duval is 15-21 at the rim but 3-16 on jump shots / floaters

Something to the effect of "it has been tough watching the way Duke treated one of the best bigs in college basketball over the past 2 years."

oh. wow.

 

[torontoduke]

Yeah. Some of these parents need a reality check.

Chase seemed to be a good teammate.

I personally thought he'd develop into a decent big man. I'll probably be on the wrong side of history there.

I stood beside him at a urinal last year in the HOF and he was impressive (........purely talking about height), but I thought about asking him how he felt knowing I could out rebound him.

One thing I'm curious about with Duval is when coaches are telling him to shoot threes. It seems like wide open corner and top of key threes late in the shot clock should be okay, and nothing else.

He had another nice play of turning an open corner three into an open baseline driving lane last night, but there are still some awkward times where he catches it wide open and hesitates before deciding what he should do.

It's a weird/unique challenge, but I think the coaches need to help him become more decisive/confident in making quick decisions in those situations.

Dick pics or it didn't happen.

To be to Duval, yes his shot is awful but he's had 2-3 of his outside shots rim out. He's not missing by a mile on most. We do need him around 30% tho.

 

[aiw]

He missed by 2 miles on most 3 pointers last night, including a practice one that happened after the whistle.

 

[CMon85]

The practice one was awful.

You'll just have to believe that someone would never lie about meeting Chase Jeter

<3

Love how active he was in trying to get certain guys involved and engaged. He seems like the exact opposite style of PG that I was expecting.

 

[rome8180]

I expected that element. I watched that hour-long video on him in high school and he seems like a great leader and genuinely good guy.

 

[bdotling]

I really enjoy his demeanor which is basically one of no emotion. Doesn’t get too up or down, just plays to win

Did his best to get Bolden some buckets
