Potential breakthrough sophomore Caleb Foster was at The Summit at One Vanderbilt in New York City on Friday night, two days after making an appearance at the ACC Tipoff in Charlotte alongside fellow returning Duke basketball backcourt starter Tyrese Proctor and third-year Blue Devil head coach Jon Scheyer.
The 6-foot-5, 202-pound guard was there working out alone with NBA superstars’ trainer Chris Brickley, a well-known figure in the sport. Furthermore, it’s clear from the evaluation that follows and the minute-long highlight reel that goes with it that Brickley thinks highly of Foster’s abilities and demeanor.
Foster averaged 7.7 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game as a rookie Blue Devil last season before suffering a right ankle injury in late February that kept him out of action for the duration of Duke’s 27-9 campaign.
The 20-year-old from Harrisburg, North Carolina, finished his 19 minutes on the court in Duke basketball’s Blue-White Scrimmage at Countdown to Craziness on October 4 with 16 points, two rebounds, and four assists on 5-for-11 shooting from the field, 2-for-5 from three, and 4-for-6 from the charity stripe.
