I wouldn't write off Maliek White. He improved significantly last offseason and I'd put my $ on him running the show next season. Maliek is a keeper. I just (at this time) don't see him as our primary ball handler. IMHO, there's more "2" in his game than "1." I am only going by 247Sports and VerbalCommits, as both describe him as a combo guard. I will also steal a quote from our esteemed evaluator "craigl79 " circa May 2017:In reality I consider Duke a combo guard who will become a point guard eventually. He was not the lead point guard at Cushing, Bede was. He is not the lead point guard on Mass Rivals even. Next year at Cushing will get the chance to be the exclusive point guard. He can develop into an elite point guard in college but he won't be one from the start. Kind of like Dunn was his freshman year after he came back.

White - top 150 jr recruited as a pg MAL - top 40 Soph recruited as a pg Duke - top 50 frosh recruited as a pg
Someone will figure it out.
I think we're good next year.

I think when the ball goes up for the 1st time in mid-Nov, White is at PG.

Nova seems to play positionless basketball where the offense starts from different players. It doesn't appear to always start with Brunson even though he is listed as the PG.
Booth & DiVincenzo both average over 3 assists a game.
I think you next year you will see a lot of 3 guard sets. Not sure it matters who the PG is. We will be able to attack from both sides of the court.
Our problem this year is that KC and possibly Alpha are the only guys who dribble that have played meaningful minutes this year.

Nova has several players with PG skills. Not sure that we have any.

Nova has several players with PG skills. Not sure that we have any. Did a Maryland coach tell you that....maybe at the Country Club?
