Duke basketball: An honest take on Coach K's next point guard

Half of Mike Krzyzewski's past six Duke basketball teams have included a trusty Jones brother operating the backcourt. In the three Jones-less campaigns, the one-spot was oftentimes a group effort, sometimes a disappointment, and only occasionally a weapon.

Next season, incoming five-star Jeremy Roach looks to provide the Blue Devils with similar stability to that of Tre and Tyus Jones. Offensively, the Paul VI Catholic (Va.) senior has the potential to be a more lethal calculating driver than either and a better shooter from Day One than Tre, who announced weeks ago his departure to the pro ranks.
