Adam Watzoned him

Good defender, based on this tweet.

O'Connel, White, Vrank, Baker lineups will really bring Duke back to their roots.

Won't Vrank be gone?

 

[rome8180]

Never fear though. There's always Matthew Hurt.

Fucking whites.

He better grow big and tall. I'm not even trying to deal with two white guards at once.

So I guess no Wendell Moore then?

 

[CMon85]

This kid looks really, really good.

If this guy isn't hated by his sophomore year, it means he sucks at basketball.

I will say, at least he's beautiful. Can't gave two uggo whites on the floor at the same time.

NCCU thinks he looks like Luke Maye

 

[rome8180]

Looks like a young Kyle Korver before Korver's face started looking like it was made of plastic.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

Looks like a somewhat famous actor I can't put finger on.

Likely the most handsome white recruit we've landed since JJ. Hopefully he benefits from handsome-privilege like Justise did - nonetheless he's not nearly as facially flawless as Justise is, so maybe that's asking too much.

Perhaps I'm tired, but I laughed way too much at this.

Ideally he grows 2-3 inches and becomes the perfect 4. I can’t help but see Ryan Kelly in his game.

"I'm a versatile player," Baker said. "I can do a lot of different things. I can play on the perimeter, sort of what Grayson Allen does and I can also do other things in the post and rebound and defend."

What a sick burn on Grayson's defense. I like it.

I’m probably forgetting someone but this seems like it’s one of the earliest recruitments we’ve wrapped up in a decade. I know guys like Thornton, Hairston, Gbinjie, Sulaimon, and Jones we’re committed around the spring of their junior years but that was so long ago. Nice to have someone locked in early.

He looks like the popular high school quarterback/homecoming king who is mean to the nerdy heroes in every 80's teen movie.

I would post my take on who he looks like, but the board would just call me a racist.

Spoiler

It's John Mayer
