"The Starting Lineup for your Duke Blue Devils"

Since the season is just around the corner I decided to dissect the roster and chose who I thought what the starting lineup would look like.

Below is the roster for this year:

34 Jamal Boykin F 6-7 230 So.
12 Jordan Davidson G 6-1 180 So.
15 Gerald Henderson G 6-4 215 Fr.
51 Steve Johnson F 6-5 195 Fr.
14 David McClure F 6-6 200 So.
2 Josh McRoberts F 6-10 240 So.
21 DeMarcus Nelson G 6-4 200 Jr.
45 Joe Pagliuca G 6-2 185 Sr.
3 Greg Paulus G 6-1 180 So.
5 Martynas Pocius G 6-5 190 So.
30 Jon Scheyer G 6-5 180 Fr.
13 Nick Sutton G 6-2 180 Fr.
42 Lance Thomas F 6-8 215 Fr.
55 Brian Zoubek C 7-1 250 Fr.

Starters:

Point - Jon Scheyer
Wing - DeMarcus Nelson
Wing - Gerald Henderson
Forward - Josh McRoberts
Center - Brian Zoubek

Thomas, Pocius, McClure, and Boykin are apart of the regular rotation. For all you non-math majors out there that is nine deep. When you bring back Paulus to run the point, I would keep the lineup the way it is. Obviously moving Scheyer out of the point position, and providing us with a tremendous ten deep lineup. This is an exciting prospect, as we will have a young, fresh, athletic, and balanced team. The more I look at this roster, I really get excited about this year and the next few years. Just a few more weeks till the season starts.

Also look ahead to the end of this week. Kyle Singler should be making his decision soon. Think positive thoughts Duke fans.
