In January 2021, two former college teammates were reunited on the same NBA team. Expectations were high that the pair—both selected in the top 10 of the 2019 Draft—would synergize, inspire greatness in each other, and perhaps lure a third, brickhouse collegiate pal to join them. Forget dynamic duo, some of us were fantasizing about a terrific trio.
Didn’t we have such high hopes for Cam Reddish?
That wing has flown, having been traded last February for Josh Hart (upgrade!). RJ Barrett remains on the New York Knicks (for now!). And Zion Williamson, the first selection in 2019, and fellow Duke Blue Devil, might be on the market.
