Coach K’s better teams - think 1986, 1991, 1992, 2001, 2010, 2015 - have all had outstanding point guards.

That was a weakness for Duke last year but shouldn’t be this fall with Trevon Duval on board.

Here’s a look at how Duke may use him. Guys like Grayson Allen and Gary Trent, Jr. should profit.

Well really anyone who is on the court will benefit. In Allen’s case though Duval could really boost his NBA stock.
