Kyle Singler coming back to Duke for his senior year

Posted On: April 19, 2010 By: Cliff Comments: (more)

Good news Duke fans! Kyle Singler announced this evening that he will be coming back to Duke for his senior season and out the NBA on hold for another year. Singler will be the main guy in the Blue Devils offense next year without question and he will be looking to bring back another championship to Durham!

“I love being here at Duke and am excited about next year,” Singler said in a statement released by the university. “I had two great options in front of me, but I did not want to miss out on all of the great things to come in a senior season.”

Singler will be one key component on next years team but we cannot forget about Nolan Smith and the Plumlee brothers. The key to the team is how well Kyrie Irving can step in at the point guard position and if he can do that look for the Blue Devils to be contending all year long!

Thanks for coming back for another year Kyle!

Wow! Duke will be a contender again. It’s a good thing for Duke that Singler is coming back because UNC has some great freshman coming in. I kind of feel bad for Singler though. He could be a mid to late first round pick this year and start making the big bucks. After his sophomore year, he would have been a late first rounder. He stayed his junior year and missed a year of great income, but he now has a National Championship ring. (IF they had not won the National Championship, would it have been worth it?) Now if he gets hurt during his senior year, he can kiss the first round and the big bucks goodbye. If hurt, he will be late 2nd round maybe. But as a Duke fan, I love the fact that we will have 2 starters back along with the Plumlees and Irving and Curry. We will be contenders again.
