Should Harry Giles play for Duke at all this season?
The nation's top-ranked freshman was the clear frontrunner to become the No. 1 overall pick in the 2017 NBA draft, even after a torn ACL, MCL and meniscus kept him off the court his entire sophomore year of high school. Then came a torn ACL in his other knee in the first game of his senior season.
A pair of torn ACLs meant it would be awfully difficult for the athletic, high-motor Giles to be taken first overall on June 22. Then came yet another red flag when Duke announced that Giles would have another procedure, termed minor, on his left knee, the one he injured as a sophomore.
That was Oct. 3, and the timetable, according to the school, was supposed to be six weeks. Monday marked the seven-week mark, and Giles still isn't back on the court
