You can definitely call this a bias take, but the more Ive been watching Whitehead the higher and higher Ive been getting on him. Now a wow level athlete like past guys like Jalen Green, Edwards, and so on. But a really good athlete and its all functional athleticism as well. Solid size as well (6'5 with a 6'9 wingspan). The form on the jumper is good (can be a little quicker) and the improvement in his jump shot production is improving at a very good rate.
This is probably the highest Ive ever been on an incoming Duke class. I really liked the Zion class, but I wasn't the biggest fan of RJ and I knew the fit was going to be questionable with all of them. 1-5 on their main guys their bringing in, I really like them all.
Im also really hoping that Scheyer will be a little more creative than K over the last decade and find minutes (even if they're limited) to get Schutt minutes. Even if its just 8-10 minutes of him constantly running off screens and stuff. Getting a legit sharpshooter like him minutes with the bigs coming in could be very beneficial.
