According to arguably the world’s most knowledgable hoops junkie, incoming Duke basketball freshman Vernon Carey Jr. won’t disappoint.
At least not as a Blue Devil.
Fran Fraschilla, who once served as a respected head coach and nowadays as the most level-headed ESPN analyst, tweeted on Wednesday a concise comparison between Carey Jr. and the class of 2019’s other two top-10 centers: James Wiseman, who is headed to Memphis, and Isaiah Stewart, who is headed to Washington.
Of the incoming college big men, @Memphis_MBB James Wiseman has the highest @NBA ceiling, @UW_MBB Isaiah Stewart has the best college motor & @DukeMBB Vernon Carey, Jr.
