Only 1 UK player in top 25. Diallo at 21. lol at Gracie #1

Considering Dook has the #1, #10, and #14 players, per ESPN, anything short of a championship should be considered a failure on K's part, no?

Why couldn't Grayson be the best player in college basketball next year? If he is healthy he will be a handful and add to the fact defenses will have there hands full with Duval, Grayson will have lots of good looks and driving lanes. I actually think he will have a similar year as Luke last year.....he might average 20 pretty easy....if his 3 ball is on he is an impossible guard in college basketball with lots a savvy old man moves in a young college basketball landscape.

Just my opinion....don't get upset

But to answer your question....I just feel there are better players than Grayson plain and simple

And I love the kid

I don't know if I would rank Grayson #1, but it certainly isn't a stretch either. Is there any other player in the nation with a resume that includes, when healthy, a season averaging 20+ in the best conference in the country?

As a Duke fan, after last season, I don't really like the fact that Grayson is being recognized as the preseason best player, again.

I also agree with everyone who states they would not have him ranked as the best. Feel like he has a lot to prove after last season.

I'd personally have Miles Bridges or Bonzi Colson (hate to say that name) ranked at the top. Along with Porter Jr.. Then Grayson in the hunt right after them.

Upset? Not even close

Just for the record, everyone in America chose him as preseason player of the year last year.....and that was with a lot better class of freshman than this year.

Who are your better players? I hope they are not freshman who have never played or let alone averaged 20 points in college basketball. They very well might end up having better years but they need to show it first.

As I said I'm not saying any names because someone will argue because grayson is a duke player....I love the kid but I just think there are better players out there...and it's not a freshman that hasn't proven a thing yet either

Ok, well name a player better than Grayson this coming season, there is not even many players that can drop 30 on teams like he can. From 1-5.

Ok since it seems to be killing you I'm not giving an answer I will name one just for you buddy

Bridges...there is your ONE

now time for you to bash me cause he plays for MSU and not Duke

I would think team expectations play into the writers equation a bit and thats all good with me.

Nothing to do with Grayson, I don't think he is the best player in the country, either. You just seem pretty argumentative most of the time.

Miles Brides can not shoot like Grayson, he is not even a knock down shooter from behind the arc. The fact that is the guy you mentioned lets me further know you have no clue, you're saying things for shock value. "I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul."

And just as I said would happen...oh well I got my opinion...but you can't take off your blue glasses for anything

Good day pal

Well...I don't know who the best player will be next year, but I do know this. The fact that RR is upset about Duke, and we are getting under their skin without even having any games going on, well, that makes me smile!
