At only 17 years old, Duke basketball big man Khaman Maluach has scored a bucket and a win at the Olympics.
Khaman Maluach was by no means the centerpiece of South Sudan's attack in a 90-79 victory over Puerto Rico at the 2024 Paris Olympics on Sunday. Even so, the 17-year-old Duke basketball freshman out of NBA Academy Africa may forever say that he was on the court for his home country's winning debut in men's basketball on the world's biggest stage.
As for the third Blue Devil talent competing in men's basketball at the Olympics, 2018-19 one-and-done and Toronto Raptors guard RJ Barrett led Canada to victory in its Group A opener on Saturday.Matt Giles is the editor and publisher of FanNation's Blue Devil Country and All Tar Heels, covering the Duke Blue Devils and UNC Tar Heels on SI.com.
