Very impressive start to his season. Big challenge awaits Tuesday.

SignUp Now!There is no way he said that and was serious.Looks like ChrisTOPHER was WRONG on the podcast when he said he doesn't think Duval averages more than 5 assists. Very weak. Sad!

I will attempt to respond to you as neutrally as possible...Hurley averaged 7.6 as a freshmen.
Jay Will averaged 6.5 as a frosh.
I would not be surpised if Trey surpassed both. He'll definitely get at least 5.1. All he has to do for that is to dump it to Bagley and Carter.
I care more about his 3pt % improving to the point where defenses don't laugh at him when he's attempting a wide open shot - than gaudy assist numbers.
At the very least he'll live up the the "best Duke PG since Tyus" label, since Trevon has already shown a better command and more nuanced understanding of the PG position in his first 2 games than Frank Jackson and Dumb Thornton did their entire time here.
Well I can't say I expected that type of stat line from a 5-star PG who is technically in his 3rd year of college. Especially since we've been led to believe that he's a PnR virtuoso and that evil K didn't properly utilize his extraordinarily high BB IQ and grasp of the PG position - according to his "uncle".I care more about his 3pt % improving to the point where defenses don't laugh at him when he's attempting a wide open shot - than gaudy assist numbers.

That reminded me to look up the USC box score.
Derryck "How you like me now" Thornton with 3-4 3pt shooting against Cal State Fullerton (but somehow 1-5 on everything else). And 0 assists, 3 turnovers in 20 minutes.
Oh and his "uncle" shat on Coach K despite Thornton starting and playing 20+ minutes a game all season, but is cool with him coming off the bench and only getting 20 minutes against pre-season scrub teams.
My favorite was the 30-foot bounce pass that Allen finished with the scoop layup.That pass to Allen for his first dunk was a pass that 99% of basketball players can't or don't make.
Are you surprised? I know we give Axe a lot of shit (me especially), but he's clearly a savant.Looks like Axe was right, and Duval will blow away Hurley's assist average record.
