JJ Redick came to Duke as a very cocky three point shooter with an incomplete grasp of the game. He drove opponents crazy and after he matured a bit, became a great Duke leader and the all-time scoring leader for the Blue Devils. Jersey retired, the whole business other than a national championship - but not for lack of trying.
As a pro, he took a little while to establish his niche but he’s now 36, will be 37 in June, and has become one of the most respected players in the NBA.
And one of the most interesting.
