    Who is Mark Mitchell?

    Duke forward who is entering his name into transfer portal following playing sophomore season for Duke, Head Coach Jon Scheyer.

    As a sophomore in 2023-2024 season for Duke, Head Coach Jon Scheyer Mark Mitchell 11.6 points , 6.0 rebounds , 1.1 assists while shooting 54 %

    Following Mark Mitchell entering the transfer portal following playing sophomore season for Duke, Head Coach Jon Scheyer Mark Mitchell had this to say!

    I would like express my sincere gratitude for Duke University and all those who supported me over the past few years. I am deeply appreciative of the impact this community has had on my life and will forever remain dear to my heart. Having , said that I have made the decision to enter my name into the transfer portal.

    According https://www.instagram.com/mark.mitchell25/?hl=en

    With Mark Mitchell entering the transfer portal who is going to be playing forward for Duke, Head Coach Jon Scheyer next season? Duke Head Jon Scheyer is going to a couple options. Two of those options are already on the roster in TJ Power, Sean Stewart who freshman during 2023-2024 season.

    As a freshman Sean Stewart averaged 2.6 points, 3.2 rebounds , 0.2 assists while shooting 57.1 %

    As a freshman TJ Power averaged 2.1 points, 0.7 rebounds , 0.2 assists while shooting 33.3 %

    According to espn app

    The option for Jon Scheyer is coming in Isiah Evans who currently attends North Mecklenburg High School is class of 2024.

    Evans has as much long-term upside as any wing in the class. He’s a late-bloomer who has grown several inches since coming into high-school and now has excellent positional size. He’s still filling out and building up his body, but has a very long and lanky frame, that may always be narrow through the core. Nonetheless, he covers the court well, is a fluid mover, and adequate athlete for the highest levels.

    Offensively, he has an ability to shoot over top of contesting defenders and get his shot off virtually any time he wants. That can be a double-edged sword though as he can settle for a lot of tough-twos and become inefficient in the process. He loves the mid-post area and has good footwork with his back to the basket, but has suspect shot-selection as he loves to spin into mid-range fade-aways. He has soft natural touch as a shooter, and is already an excellent free-throw shooter, but can sometimes lose loft on his ball from three when not getting his legs involved enough. He’s fluid with the ball and can dance with his handle, but doesn’t always have the first-step to blow right by a set defender. The most underrated part of his game is his passing ability as he uses his size to see over top of defense and shows flashes of making some high-level finds.

    Defensively, his positional size, length, and fluidity should all translate, especially as he builds up his body, but he’s probably more playmaker than stopper right now with a good nose for the ball but less interest in consistently sitting down in a stance.

    Overall, Evans has immense two-way tools and could still be in the very early stages of putting them all together. He needs to keep getting stronger, more efficient, and being able to consistently impact winning on both ends of the floor. If it all comes together ideally though, he could end up a big wing who scores at multiple levels, can be a secondary playmaker, and potentially versatile defender.

    According to https://247sports.com/player/isaiah-evans-46116361/

    Who is Tyrese Proctor?

    Duke guard who is from Sydney Australia who is returning to Duke for junior season in 2024-2025 season.

    As a sophomore in 2023-2024 Tyrese Proctor who is from Sydney Australia averaged 10.5, 3.0 rebounds , 3.7 assists while shooting 42.3 % .

    According to espn app

    Though,

    Tyrese Proctor’s sophomore season didn’t conclude the way he wanted it to as Duke lost 76-64 to NC State in Elite 8 one win away from advancing to Final Four in Phoenix Arizona.

    In that game Tyrese Proctor was 0-9 on field goals, 0-5 on 3 pointers to go along with 4 rebounds, 4 assists , 0 points.

    According to espn app

    Following Duke’s 76-64 loss to NC State in Elite 8 one win away from advancing to Final Four in Phoenix Arizona Tyrese Proctor was very emotional as Tyrese Proctor didn’t even offer an explanation because instead sat alone in a corner near his locker, with a towel covering his head and face, sobbing.

    According to https://www.newsobserver.com/sports/college/acc/duke/article287245990.html

    On Thursday April 11, 2024 it was announced that Tyrese Proctor is returning to Duke for junior season in 2024-2025 season.

    According to Stephen Wiseman News & Observer article https://www.newsobserver.com/sports/college/acc/duke/article287607955.html

    Who is Jeremy Roach?

    Duke senior guard who is entering his name into NBA Draft who is entering his name into transfer portal following playing his senior season for Duke, Head Coach Jon Scheyer.

    As a senior for Duke in 2023-2024 season,

    Jeremy Roach averaged 14.0 points, 2.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists while shooting 46.8%

    Following entering his name into NBA Draft entering his name into transfer portal Jeremy Roach shared his thoughts in an Instagram post by saying Thank you for a special four years. My experience at Duke has been unforgettable and made a better person , leader and player.

    Who is Jaden Schutt?

    Duke guard who is entering his name into transfer portal following playing sophomore season for Duke, Head Coach Jon Scheyer.

    Following entering his entering his name into transfer portal Jaden Schutt had this to say!

    Forever grateful for my time in Durham,""The experience has been like no other and I have developed wonderful relationships with coaches, teammates, and the community that I hope last a lifetime."

    I appreciate Coach Scheyer for giving me an opportunity to be a part of his first ever recruiting class," he added. "Duke is a special place and I have nothing but good things to say about the place I have called home for the last two years."

    According to https://www.instagram.com/p/C5zBehPOLZ7/

    As a sophomore in 2023-2024 season,

    Jaden Schutt averaged 2.1 points, 1.1 rebounds, 0.4 assists while shooting 35.7%

    According to https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/player/_/id/4712846/jaden-schutt

    While Duke has players returning transferring, entering thei names into transfer portal , entering their names in 2024 NBA Draft they also have players coming in as freshman in the fall of 2024.

    Those players include Cooper Flagg, Isiah Evans, Kon Knueppel, Patrick Ngongba II Darren Harris!

    Cooper Flagg is an elite two-way prospect. His instincts are off the charts on both ends of the floor and he competes with a quiet type of killer instinct. He's a defensive standout and particularly dominant as an off-ball defender. In fact, he's as good of an underclassman shot-blocker as I've seen at his size. Offensively, he's an excellent passer with a good foundation of early skill and developing playmaking ability. His footwork is excellent. His shooting and handling are both good and continuously improving. He doesn't necessarily need to be the focal point on that end of the floor, but he's shown he's plenty capable of it. Physically, Flagg's frame is solid enough to absorb contact now and will only add additional muscle mass in the coming years.

    Evans has as much long-term upside as any wing in the class. He’s a late-bloomer who has grown several inches since coming into high-school and now has excellent positional size. He’s still filling out and building up his body, but has a very long and lanky frame, that may always be narrow through the core. Nonetheless, he covers the court well, is a fluid mover, and adequate athlete for the highest levels.

    Offensively, he has an ability to shoot over top of contesting defenders and get his shot off virtually any time he wants. That can be a double-edged sword though as he can settle for a lot of tough-twos and become inefficient in the process. He loves the mid-post area and has good footwork with his back to the basket, but has suspect shot-selection as he loves to spin into mid-range fade-aways. He has soft natural touch as a shooter, and is already an excellent free-throw shooter, but can sometimes lose loft on his ball from three when not getting his legs involved enough. He’s fluid with the ball and can dance with his handle, but doesn’t always have the first-step to blow right by a set defender. The most underrated part of his game is his passing ability as he uses his size to see over top of defense and shows flashes of making some high-level finds.

    Defensively, his positional size, length, and fluidity should all translate, especially as he builds up his body, but he’s probably more playmaker than stopper right now with a good nose for the ball but less interest in consistently sitting down in a stance.

    Overall, Evans has immense two-way tools and could still be in the very early stages of putting them all together. He needs to keep getting stronger, more efficient, and being able to consistently impact winning on both ends of the floor. If it all comes together ideally though, he could end up a big wing who scores at multiple levels, can be a secondary playmaker, and potentially versatile defender.

    Knueppel finished as the leading scorer in the EYBL regular season with almost 23 points per game. He’s not built like a prototypical wing scorer or playmaker as he has a naturally broader build without standout quickness or leaping ability, but what he may lack in natural athletic gifts, he compensates for with physical strength, competitiveness, a terrific mind for the game, and a skill-set that is as polished as it is versatile. Knueppel is an excellent shooter, who connected on almost 47% of his attempts from behind the arc in the spring, but he can also operate from various spots on the floor. He can bring the ball up, initiate offense and play-make. While he’s not blowing by many defenders, he’s an efficient handler who can drive both sides, drop his body to maintain balance through contact, and never gets sped-up. He’s also a threat to take smaller defenders into the post where he can utilize his strength to his advantage. What is constant, regardless of where he attacks, is his ability to dictate his own pace, read the defense, and be a heady passer if he draws secondary defenders or forces rotations. Defensively, there may be times where he can struggle to keep quicker wings in front of him in space, but he’s smart and competitive enough to be in all the right spots and show plenty of fight. He’s also physical switching onto bigger players in the post, and fronting them. Overall, Knueppel is one of the better offensive players in the class. He’s skilled, smart, efficient, productive, and able to create match-ups problems all over the floor. Long-term, his upside will be tied to his ability to hold his own on the defensive end of the floor as the game gets quicker and more athletic.

    Ngongba has a tremendous combination of size, length, and offensive skill. He stands just shy of 7-feet with ultra-broad shoulders and a big frame that gives him a significant presence on both ends of the floor. He has extremely soft hands and touch, equally impressive footwork, and a high release point around the paint. He provides a true low-post scorer, but is also an inside-out threat with developing shooting range out to the arc. He’s a good passer who is starting to punish double-teams, facilitate from different spots on the floor, and even deliver balls with both hands. He has versatility playing out of ball-screen actions and can also be effective operating in dribble-hand-offs. Overall, Ngongba is an exceptionally efficient offensive player (70% FG in the EYBL regular season), but one who is showing more signs of being able to anchor a half-court offense down the road. Durability and mobility are the key variables for him moving forward. He missed time with injuries early in his high school career and was not an especially fluid mover when he returned. While he’s made great strides since, he still projects as a drop coverage big man at the next level, without much defensive versatility. His physical presence in the lane gives him some value as a rim protector (1.3 blocks per game), although he still often has to shuffle his feet before elevating, while his length and hands allow him to own his area on the glass (7.8 rebounds in 19.3 minutes). Finally, Ngongba has shown a rapid rate of improvement since getting healthy, which could be a key variable to projecting his long-term upside.

    So, the book on Harris is that he's a great shooter and it isn't just about the ball going through the net. Ultimately that's the goal but how Harris' shot gets from his fingertips to the hoop is superior to many others. At 6-foot-6 with a sturdy build, Harris has tremendous size that allows him to see over the top of defenders and get clean looks. Away from the ball, he also knows how to use his body to make his way through traffic, play through contact and get to his spots. Once he gets to his spots, the shot preparation is elite. He's always on balance and shot ready and then shoots a classic shot where the balance sets a base and he then gets the shot off quickly with a nicely tucked elbow, eyes on the rim and a fully extended follow through where it looks like he's trying to reach into that cookie jar on the top shelf.

    While shooting is certainly Harris' biggest strength and the asset that's going to get him on the floor early, he's got other strengths as well. He's an intelligent passer, he has some mid post game and he's a sneaky good rebounder. He doesn't yet do a ton off the dribble so that is a major area for him to establish growth and athletically he isn't bad but he could stand to improve his lateral quickness and overall pop which could help him to create separation on offense and be a more versatile defender.
