I just saw this on Facebook. They posted the video of Kyrie saying “another one, that’s all I gotta say” but it was the video of Zion committing, so it had me confused. So I went to the comments section and someone commented “welcome Jalen” so I had to come here to confirm who it was.
 

Friction.

Beyond thrilled to hear this. Absolutely love this kid’s game. IMO him and Cade are the best in this class right now. Getting Roach and J Johnson this early is huge - staff can put even more energy on the others now.

We’ll a more in depth break down of Jalen’s game on the podcast (OTPC as @timo0402 likes to say), but we’re basically getting a 6’9 point guard who can score 15 points in a row any given moment. He could have 8 assists one half and 22 in another.

I was really excited to get RJ, and that was justified. Jalen could be better. He hits free throws.;)

Congrats on a good pick up. He is going to be a very good player. I was hoping the Cats might pull a surprise here, but didn't expect it. Nice pick up

From the highlights he kind of remind me of Jabari. Before Jabari got to Duke he was known as a playmaker and scorer. This kid looks like he love to pass

You had me at “he hits free throws.”

Cats will be getting there 4 top 50 freshman and 1-2 grad transfers I would think. Might have a few juniors there next season playing minutes as well.

Excited about the Johnson commitment! However will be MUCH MORE EXCITED when we can get these "phenoms" back where Duke belongs- to a final four.

Believe me I realize some bad luck has been on our side last few yrs, injuries, etc,shots spinning out, but we need to take over our rightful place again, getting to Final Fours. Sure I know its just been 4 years, but with our brand, our coaching staff, lets get over that hump!
