Luke Kennard has been one of the biggest risers this season, he surprisingly become one of Duke’s go-to men. Kennard was aided by the regression of the hot tempered Grayson Allen, who missed a fair amount of games due to suspensions. Kennard stepped into the starting role and grasped the opportunity with both hands, he has gone from a mid second round prospect to a legit first rounder.
Kennard showed that he is more than just a shooter, he is moe than capable of taking to the rimm and finishing it. Of course Kennard’s deep shooting will be his main calling card when he comes into the NBA but its nice to see him improve other aspects of his game to become a more well rounded player.
