Drew Scharnowski stands out in Duke player preview ahead of season

Drew Scharnowski, a 6-10, 240-pound forward, was recently highlighted in the Duke Chronicle player preview. Transferring from Belmont, Scharnowski excelled last season with a shooting percentage of 68.1% and showcased his skills in multiple games, including four double-doubles. Despite struggles at the free throw line, where he shot 43.6% last year, his physicality and defensive abilities are expected to earn him significant playing time. Duke's season begins soon under head coach Jon Scheyer, and how Scharnowski adapts to the ACC will be key for the team's success.
