re: Grayson Allen returning to Duke

This is the right move. This is a deep draft and next year's class isn't going to be nearly as good as this one. It is universally considered a weak year. 2018 is considered a historically bad year but 2017 isn't much better (still better than 2015 and 2018).

Allen would be a second rounder this year. besides he was injured and didn't play well for more than 2/3 of the year.

I believe that all the Duke insiders expect Duval to commit to Duke, so the starting line-up should be Duval, Jackson, Allen, Carter, Bolden with Trent Jr, DeLaurier, and Vrankovic off the bench. Knox is still in play but he could end up at FSU, Missouri, or UNC as well.

If he comes, then he's either starting at the 4 or the 6th man.
