Don’t give up on Duke basketball freshman Cam Reddish. Don’t lash out at him through the TV for not living up to his billing as the nation’s third-best recruit coming out of high school. Don’t even let his shooting woes be cause for concern.
He’s a good player with the potential to become great.
He’s calm and nice yet should probably become a touch more vocal and meaner.
He’s actually the perfect complement — not a ball hog or a whiner — to his fellow freshmen starters.
Sure, it’s true he is struggling to avoid clanks off the rim after he launches shots from beyond the arc as of late — 5-for-27 across the past four games, including a 1-for-5 clip during the Blue Devils’ 69-58 win over Texas Tech on Thursday night.
