The college basketball world was officially introduced to the internet-breaking freshman in a major way. R.J. Barrett led his squad with 33 points in 32 minutes against Kentucky, a Duke Blue Devils record for most points by a freshman in their debut.
However for those fans who kept a watchful eye on Barrett while he was still in high school, Tuesday’s performance was more of the same.
I was fortunate enough to receive a front row seat to Barrett’s brilliance back in March at the 2018 GEICO Nationals.
