Remember when "Duke couldn't produce NBA quality talent"?

There’s been more success in the last 10 years, in terms of the number of guys making it in the pros, than the previous 30 were under K.
Those old enough will agree.

Grant Hill’s NBA career always makes me sad.. if he could have stayed healthy, he would have been mentioned in the tier right under MJ, Kobe, & Lebron.. would have been grouped with players like Karl Malone, Shaq, etc.

Jay Williams was going to be an all-star for many years too..

We had some pretty good players before this OAD, Christian ironically turned in underrated career. He, Boozer, Dunleavy, Shane All has very long and productive careers. Ferry, Luol Deng and Brand were all stars and max level guys. As mentioned above if Jason Williams and Hurley don’t get hurt, they’re probably all-stars. And even with the injury riddled career, Grant played forever. Wish he didn’t get those awful injuries bc he was the next MJ before Kobe in many circles. Duhon had a solid career as well. Dahantay Jones and Corey Maggette both long and successful careers.

I remember being so made we missed out on guys like Monroe, Patterson, Boynton & Barnes but then we got Kyrie and the rest was history.
