Plus his enthusiasm is off the charts. I think we may see 3 captains this season and they are; Moore, Roach and Baker. No captains in 2020-2021 to 3 captains in 2021-2022 would be a jump.
GoDuke!
If Coach K brings back captains (which I hope he does), I suspect Moore is a shoo-in.
Baker seems like a really good candidate, given his seniority, enthusiasm, vocality (made up word), and likelihood of cracking the rotation.
Roach is interesting. Sophomore Tre Jones was a captain in '19-'20. Same with Paulus and McBob in '06-'07. All those players were highlighted significantly during the season. If Roach is captain, I suspect he'll be featured prominently, which is a good thing.
