As a fan and someone who likes to try and project these guys NBA careers I agree. But I think Cam was very lucky these 2 signed up later to go to Duke.
Cam being the clear cut #1 guy for a different power conference team I think could've really hurt his draft stock. I think his inability to handle contact while driving and his major inconsistencies would seem much worse than what they seem at Duke.
With this Duke team he can have a couple turnovers trying to attack. Then after that just kind of float offensively and focus on defense. I just think he can hide more and that has really helped his stock from just plummeting.
Then on the flip side, I think RJ's decision to go to Duke has hurt him. He would look a lot better if he was in a similar situation as Trae Young last year, where he could be the obvious #1 option. People could then look at the high usage and selfish play as RJ doing that out of necessity.
