Austin Rivers To Duke

Featured Replies

I really like watching him play which makes this hard but should be fun to see what he does at Duke.

You are in the VAST minority on that one. He is by far the most NBA ready player right now in the class...

 

What kind of athleticism does he have? That would be the one knock I would have against him NBA wise going off of what I've seen, which is not much at all.

He doesn't wow you with it, but he is plenty athletic. The thing that really jumps out is how many pro moves he has on the offensive end. He paces him self really well and has 3 or 4 different gears to get to his spot on the floor in a variety of ways. He can pull up from anywhere on a dime and get buckets all the way out to 25 feet...

:thumb: I can't wait to watch him play some more then. Polished offensive games are really few and far between for guys coming out high school.

Am I wrong that he reminds me of Stephen Curry?

Rivers is much taller and thicker, but he can pour in shots from anywhere like Steph...

Dude is a nasty baller....that's all.

One guy who had zero personal or NCAA issues while at UC. Nice try. Next...

 

Lance Stephenson had huge baggage. Tell me what UK recruit had issues with the NCAA? Don't give me Bledsoe the NCAA wasn't involved.

Having an NBA coach for a Dad can't hurt.

Wall had more issues given that he served a suspension while Lance didn't. Now Kanter. Care to try again???

Did Duke recruit him while he was committed to Florida?

 

Nope. He decommitted a year ago and then Duke got back involved...

Are you seriously going to act like Lance Stephenson didn't have baggage? If so there is no reason to try period. There are other issues than ones with the NCAA.

 

And since you brought it up what exactly has UK done that could possibly be considered wrong with Kanter?

Never said Lance had zero baggage. Said he had no NCAA or personal issues in his time at UC. Care to dispute?

 

Other than signing a kid that even multiple prep schools wouldn't touch including Oak Hill? Nothing. I'd say it is going just as expected...
