That clears it up, although I think of this as the 2020 season, and Jordan and AOC are juniors. Next year is the 2021 season, beginning in November 2020, when they will be seniors. You are referring to the 2021-2022 season?

'When I got on the bus for my first road game at Duke, I saw that every player was carrying textbooks or laptops. I coached in the SEC for 25 years, and I had never seen that before, not even once.' - David Cutcliffe to Duke alumni in Washington, DC, June 2013
Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfils the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things. - Winston Churchill

I don't see Duke having a realistic shot with either Banchero or Kuminga. Things change, but there has been next to 0 buzz with those two. And I am perfectly fine with that.
PGs: Roach, Steward
SG: Christie
SF: Griffin, Baker
PF: Baldwin, Brakefield, Coleman
C: Williams, [INSERT BIG MAN HERE]
This would be a pretty, pretty good team IMO.
Perhaps not buzzworthy (YMMV), but Paolo Banchero was on Duke's campus for an OV two weeks ago for CTC.

ETA: That's Hunter Dickinson next to him on the right, and Henry Coleman behind.

Duke makes top 10 for Kuminga.
The list, in case anyone was wondering.
Auburn, Duke, Florida State, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, Memphis, Michigan, Texas Tech and Washington
Bit of a surprise that LSU is not in there as they were supposedly one of the front runners and one of the 247 gurus had picked them as his eventual home. I think this shows how early things are for Kuminga and that he hasn't really narrowed things all that much yet.
Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?

Coleman looks to have about 2 inches on Hunter.
Hunter is 7-0.
Bleacher seats are 6".
Therefore, Coleman is 6'8 with shoes.
6'8 238 lbs.
With 7-1 250lb Mark Williams
6-9 220+ Brakefield
6-8 240+ Henry Coleman
I think we're fine with the depth and size of our front court, but lacking in lottery talent or experience.
Some highlights from AJ Griffin's first game. Also in there is RJ Davis (UNC).
Griffin is going to be special by the time he gets to Duke.
