David Duke

Draft Notes

Duke has shown steady improvement during his time at Providence, becoming a complete guard who can score from inside or out and play on or off the ball. He’s a consistent outside shooter who rises up with good form and a nice release.

Duke has a strong build with broad shoulders and good strength. He’s got good handles and can penetrate the lane, despite not having an elite first step. He shows good body control, can score from a variety of positions and has a nice deceleration/step back move to get his shot.

He’s an older prospect, born in 1999.
