That Alex Murphy might also be a possible early enrollee to Duke? Word is he might possibly graduate a year early and join the 2011 class, exactly like Andre Dawkins did in 2009. Seeing that Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith will be gone, and that Kyrie Irving in my mind still is very likely to leave for the draft, having a wing of Murphy’s size might not be bad at all. Starting line-up would more than likely be Mason Plumlee, Ryan Kelly, Andre Dawkins, Austin Rivers at either point or two, along with maybe Quinn Cook or Seth Curry fighting for the last spot. I would probably give Cook the advantage as more of a pure point, with Curry being their first option off the bench, Duke going with a three guard line-up seems more than likely at most times. Nonetheless, Murphy would be a nice addition to their recruiting class and would definitely get some meaningful PT. I think Kyle Singler was a more polished product entering college, but Murphy might be a better long term prospect. Big signing for Duke, and I believe they should probably work towards getting him in early.
