Duke Basketball: NBA season opener to feature three former Blue Devils

All three are on the short list of the best former Duke basketball players in the league right now. Two will start for one squad; on the other, the third is a popular preseason pick to win the Sixth Man of the Year Award.

Yes, when the Boston Celtics host the Philadelphia 76ers at 8 p.m. on Tuesday night to tip off the 2018-19 NBA season — a rematch from the second round of the playoffs last season — #TheBrotherhood will be influential.

In fact, if you click over to TNT to watch the game at any random moment, there is a high probability that the ball will be in the hands of one of the three.
