Sun Sep 18 2022 | 01:28 | David Duke Jr. Staying With The Nets On Two-Way Deal |
Forward David Duke Jr. is staying in Brooklyn on a two-way deal. The 22-year-old appeared in 22 games with the Nets last season. He also made seven starts, averaging a respectable 7.7, 6.3 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in those games. Duke will probably make more appearances for the big club this season. While that won't make Duke a day-to-day fantasy producer, his services may sometimes come in handy in 2022-23. Of course, dynasty managers should consider keeping him around, especially since he could be a year or two away from becoming a regular at the NBA level. |

Sun Jul 10 2022 | 21:16 | David Duke Jr. Plays Well In Summer League Win |
Brooklyn Nets forward David Duke Jr. had 21 points in the win over Philadelphia during Summer League play on Sunday. He shot a decent 6-for-11 from the field, although he couldn't sink either of his two attempts from downtown. Yet, Duke made up for it by going 9-for-10 from the charity stripe while adding five rebounds, two assists, and two steals. At some point throughout his career, the 22-year-old may crack a consistent spot in the rotation. Until then, he doesn't have fantasy value in anything outside of dynasty formats, and even that is being generous. |

Brooklyn Nets shooting guard David Duke Jr. bagged his second double-double in three games on Saturday, finishing a 100-93 loss to the Magic with 18 points and a game-high 14 rebounds. He shot 7-for-15 from the field with a 1-for-4 effort from deep and completed his line with one assist, two steals and one block. The 22-year-old has grabbed an opportunity to log extra minutes with both hands and is giving fantasy managers something in every category. The COVID-19 situation at Brooklyn is very bad and Duke Jr. should continue to play an active role for the team for the time being. |
