Duke basketball program could afford mass exodus

On Saturday, ACC Player of the Year Tre Jones announced his decision to leave the Duke basketball program in order to turn pro early. Hours later, junior Alex O'Connell tweeted his decision to transfer. In all likelihood, within the coming weeks — maybe the coming days or even hours — several other undergrads will depart the program.

ACC Rookie of the Year Vernon Carey Jr. looks ready to bulldoze his way into an NBA rotation. ACC All-Freshman Team selection Cassius Stanley looks ready to fly his personal-jet self to the same place.
