Cool! Three Plumlees, two Boozers, and five Knueppels. It really will be a family!Four little brothers too…

Wow great pick up. Could be a 2-3 year guy as well. Virginia wanted him badly. Jon continues his great recruiting. 6-5 wing who can shoot.

And a partridge in a pear tree.
Boy it sure would be good to see a multi-year 3 point specialist come in and put up 40% from three! Seems like it's been a while since we really had a consistent sharpshooter. Welcome to the family!!
Don't need him to play right away. Just play when needed.
He shot 46% from 3 in 13 summer league games. I watched some highlights. I see a lot of Chris Mullin in his game. Very fundamentally sound, sweet stroke, perhaps a little slow but very crafty. We are gonna enjoy watching this kid play. He's a big kid, probably more of a 3 than a 2.

No need for him to play heavy minutes before his time.
Agreed, but this kid is a stud. He will play right away. Great looking shot and can shoot off the dribble.
I think he plays right away. Five stars don't come to Duke to not play right away. Will he start? That all depends on roster turnover but he's going to be an important piece to the squad next year.
Agreed. This kid can shoot and has good size. Will at the very least come off the bench as a freshman. Is a very creative scorer; D may need work but he has good size and decent agility.

Definitely see this guy playing his way onto the court. Idk exactly what our team will look like at this time next year, but I don't see Kon sitting on the bench much. Even if he starts there, I think he'll play himself into a role very quickly. Especially whenever teams try to get us with a zone defense. He'll be a big asset in those situations especially
Could be our last 2,000 point scorer. I see this as a four year guy that’s a big time player for us
I was thinking that. He is very skilled but perhaps a step slow for the NBA. He could be a 4 year guy. But I thought Kennard would stay 3-4 years as well.
Shooting is what Scheyer is putting his mark on . The three recruits coming in can all shoot from the perimeter and have size . Now , whether that shows in their first season remains to be seen but I like it . Three point shooters with some size
I completely understand that reasoning. With the NIL deals, I see kids staying in college. Moreover, that's 3 wings Duke has recruited and if Cooper comes that's 4.
Are they all really wings at the college level? We are seeing sg’s and pg’s at 6’5” to 6’9” so there is a good chance we see the three wings split time at the 2/3 .
