Hairston has a pair of double-fi gure scoring games and has also made two starts as a Blue Devil. Hairston, an emotional leader on the team, is a solid help-side defender and has developed an effective shooting stroke out to 15 feet. PG Tandem Takes Care of the Ball Junior Tyler Thornton and sophomore Quinn Cook provide the Blue Devils with two solid options at the point guard position. The duo combined to average 8.5 points, 2.9 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game with a 2.54:1 assist-toturnover ratio last season. Thornton is a tenacious defender with 22 career starts and three double-figure scoring games. He has also shown a knack for making clutch baskets despite not being a primary scoring threat. Cook made four starts as a freshman and had a string of 21 consecutive assists without a turnover from Dec. 19 to Jan. 4. He also posted fi ve double-fi gure scoring games a year ago. Thornton and Cook are both very good from the free throw line, combining to shoot 76.3 percent (71-of-93) from the charity stripe last season.

Murphy led the team in scoring (17.4 ppg.), rebounds (6.6 rpg.) and blocks (1.3 bpg.) at the 2012 U-20 World Championships. Marshall Plumlee is a powerful and aggressive post that has steadily improved since arriving in Durham. He played this summer with the East Coast All-Stars in the Four Nations Cup, averaging 7.7 points, 8.3 rebounds and 3.0 blocks in three games. Impact Newcomers Freshmen Amile Jefferson and Rasheed Sulaimon are expected to make signifi cant impacts for the Blue Devils in Both players were 2012 McDonald s All-Americans with Sulaimon becoming the eighth Blue Devil commit to win the three-point shootout title at the event. Jefferson, ranked No. 21 by the Recruiting Services Consensus Index, is a high-energy forward with a strong feel for the game.
