Seems like TJ Power is the guy who is likely to get the biggest rankings bump. He averaged around 40 points, 15 rebounds and 5 assists at the most recent Nike EYBL session against some of the best players in the ‘22, ‘23, and ‘24 recruiting classes. His performances this Summer have earned him offers from Duke, UNC, Kansas, Indiana, UCLA, and a multitude of other top programs. Also think Power and Flip are pretty tight.
Very well could be, but I do know from various articles that JP is moving up so wouldn't shock me if he's in the 30-35 range. As of right now, for what it's worth, crystal ball is all Duke for him.
Estrella is often described as a stretch 5 who can also protect the rim. The way that Power is described kinda reminds me of Singler. Power is a very good baseball player as well and wants to play both sports in college.
#4 i believe that was Johns....and you went deep in the bag w/ the Malik Sealy reference...=)
He’s waiting for both his paper work for Duke and his paperwork to be processed for his move to the US . To be complete .
Schutt was ranked higher then Blake’s and plays a different position. Baker looked good on scrimmages as well. Blake’s see’s the court if he can defend .
They may well not see the court much this year but that's ok. I think all of us wanted some guys who stay and contribute as upper classmen. Estrella and Power would fit that bill as well if they choose Duke. I certainly appreciate all the talent that has come through Duke and Jon is doing an outstanding job thus far in continuing the success. The 2025 class already looks like it could be outstanding with the Boozer twins and others. I see that opposing fan bases are slowly moving the goal posts from Duke can't recruit without K to Duke will fail on the sidelines without K. Jon will make them eat crow in that regard also. Oh, the life of a Duke hater, heaven is always just a few years away.
I think I’m away , Blake’s has to see the court along with Schutt. You mentioned the role Jon is on in recruiting and I see it as an example that in order to excel on the side line you need upperclassman with experience. Giving that to Schutt and Blake’s this year will only help them next season because I don’t see either starting over MCCain or Foster. However they could be lethal as upperclassman coming off the bench . Schutt will have Grandison and Catchings to play against this year along with Proctor and Blake’s will have Roach and Proctor . The key for 2023 is getting those two to return .We already know Duke will have size and Athleticism in the front court .
Schutt should never play pg period . He’s a pure shooting guard and has the sg size for the league . If he’s in at pg then someone was seriously wrong about Roach and Proctor and IMO it would be like saying ,” No one had any intention of playing Blake’s .
