Wake Forest v Duke

One of Coach K’s standard bits of advice to his players is to run your own race. That appears to be what Marques Bolden has done: the big guy has signed a free agent contract with Cleveland.

Terms haven’t been released but presumably it’s not a guaranteed contract and may be a two-way. We’ll just have to wait and see what they release.

Whatever it is it’s great that someone signed him so quickly. He can help right away on defense and is also a reliable rebounder. Congrats to Marques and best of luck with the Cavaliers.
