First time posting in a long time, but I could not resist. Thanks for getting me back on track.
Were you secretly summoning a dumpster fire? Apparently, Armando Bacot Sr. tweeted "CHANGE IS EVERYTHING" and then unfollowed unc on his IG account. Not sure what it means, but it can't be good for Tarheel Nation.

I would guess between Anthony Davis, Karl Towns, and Bam Adebayo alone, that would be a pretty decent chunk of the Duke bigs' earnings. Those guys are all still fairly young, and are going to be making a lot of cash going forward. Then there's guys like Julius Randle, Nerlens Noel, PJ Washington, Enes Kanter, and Willie Cauley Stein, as well as a few more lower level guys. I think UK has us beat pretty easily.
Bagley doesn't appear to be anything close to a max contract player, so Duke has only 1 max guy: Zion. UK has at least 3, probably 4 if you count Randle.

Hard at work making beautiful things.
I hope we make a serious run at Kessler.
Irving excluded from this list for a reason?
I am sure you are correct but does that mean that Kessler is not better, potentially, than any of our current roster of big men with the exception of Williams? In the college game, I am not convinced that you can have too many solid post players and particularly those that might stay multiple seasons. Now, I know I am making a number of assumptions which is always dangerous.

"We are not provided with wisdom, we must discover it for ourselves, after a journey through the wilderness which no one else can take for us, an effort which no one can spare us, for our wisdom is the point of view from which we come at last to regard the world." --M. Proust
