Playing at Duke will drastically stall his progression for the NBA.  Coach Kryzypoopski cares more about winning titles than player progression.  Nothing wrong with winning titles, but if Zion wants to be the next big thing, Duke was not the place to go.  Coach K is going to use Zion's strengths which will work at the college level, but when he gets to the NBA and has less of a size advantage, brute strength will not be enough to get buckets. Duke already has Barrett and Redish in their lineup there is no incentive to have Zion become a better shooter or ball handler.  Just look at Jahlil Okafor.  Guy was a stud at Duke, but got to the NBA and suddenly he didn't have the size advantages he had in college.  Calipari might not win as many titles, but the progression players make under his coaching for a year or two is leaps and bounds ahead of what they get under Krapzyeski.

Just look at some of the 5 star recruits Duke has ruined over the past 5 years. 
DUKE:  Jahlil Okafor, Tyus Jones, Chase Jeter, Derryck Thornton, Frank Jackson, Marques Bolden
