Tyrese Proctor reclassifying

[Duke Blue Lemur]

Any word on when his paperwork will be done and he can join his teammates in Durham?

Paperwork? There's paperwork with these things now? Geesh.

This is not the dump on the hump! 😡

It's interesting to consider whether Keels decision to go pro was based on Proctor reclassifying. Proctor reclass would significantly increase Keels draft stock risk...

Which gives rise to a fun question to bat around - will freshman Proctor, who seems to be a top 10 HS recruit, be better than what would have been a sophomore Keels? I suppose experience is an important factor which would give the edge to Keels, but I think it may actually be a close call as to who is better.

Hope Tyrese can carve out a basketball career like Patty Mills. 6'7 wingspan and 6'5 height is a good advantage to have.

Jeremy's assist rate was the same his freshman year as it was his sophomore year. It wasn't that strong in high school, either. He's really always been more of a shoot-first combo guard/PG. Duval on the other hand, had a very high assist rate in high school and a very high assist rate in college. He's always been more of a pass-first PG. I don't think it's "dinging" Jeremy for saying Duval is a more willing (and probably better) passer. Especially in the context of the OP saying that Roach over Duval at PG is a "big advantage" for the 2023 team over the 2018 team.

That's fair. Hopefully Jeremy has a big sophomore to junior jump.

I seriously doubt that the recruiting ranking folks know what to do with Proctor. Aside from a few practices and one game at the Nike Hoop Summit, I doubt any of them have seen him play live. Maybe they have watched a few of his games via streaming or something.

Very few of us have any real idea how he ranks compared to other elite recruits. He’s an enigma wrapped in a mystery

Seems like I've seen August for Proctor's arrival.

Not sure the freshmen are on campus yet. They came in late May last year but late June is the more common time.

They are all at K Academy, as is Young. Not sure about Catchings. Roach and Blake’s are also there so I think they are working out when not doing K Academy activities. I assume they are all sticking around after this weekend.

Hopefully Duke can accelerate Proctor’s arrival as much as possible.

I believe Proctor may be older than Keels? Maybe someone can confirm.

Based on my google search, Proctor was born April 1, 2004 so he is 18. If he was older than Keels I think there is a decent chance he would be going straight to the NBA but since he is only 18, that is not an option. Keels was born August 26, 2003 so is fairly young for his year in school. Interestingly (at least to me), AJ Griffin is one day older than Keels.

Sorry ahead of time about the intertwining of threads...Coach K academy and other summer camps are exactly what I think when I think about NIL and its intent. The players are counselors at a basketball camp on campus with a lot of alumni/fans and should get paid for their services.

I would hope that paperwork had begun a few months ago when there was even a hint of a possibility of him coming early.

Another game with video as he had 16 points and 7 rebounds in 24 minutes in an 84-73 win over the North-West Tasmania Thunder:

Maybe he still needs to complete the classes he needs to get a HS diploma or at least fulfill NCAA requirements to play in college.

I believe it’s a matter of immigration rather than classes/eligibility… that process is ALWAYS more complicated than you’d think.

could be wrong, but I think he already has graduated.

In that close game, Tyrese got the most minutes at 24, but the 12th man got 13+ minutes.

And, as everyone, should know, Tasmanian Devils play excellent m2m defense.

I don’t think you can just apply for an international visa “in case” you decide to move, and then turn it down if you change your mind.
