When it comes to the Brotherhood in the NBA, we’ve mostly focused on the remarkable rookie seasons of Cooper Flagg and Kon Knueppel, but of course there are a lot of other former Blue Devils in the NBA and any given night you can look at the box scores and see great performances.
There were several Friday night.
Brandon Ingram had 35 for Toronto and RJ Barett had 16 vs Orlando and for the Magic, Paolo Banchero had 20 points and 9 rebounds and Wendell Carter had 23 and 7.
Meanwhile, Zion Williamson had
21 points on 7-10 shooting and also had 7 rebounds and 4 assists.
For the Phoenix Suns, Grayson Allen had 13 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists while Mark Williams had 10 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and a block.
Finally, Kyle Filipowski had 14 points, 12 rebounds and 2 assists for Utah in a loss to Brooklyn.
It’s kind of crazy to see the influence Duke is having at all levels of basketball. Toss in GMs like Trajan Langdon, Mike Dunleavy and Elton Brand, toss in Grant Hill running USA Basketball and we’d have to say it’s unprecedented.
