I couldn't remember the name of the 17-year-old freshman playing for the Blue Devils, so I asked Google AI the following question:
"Who is the super freshman playing for Puke? I mean Duke."
Google's AI replied:
The "super freshman" making wavs for Duke (or "Puke," depending on your fandom) for the 2026-27 sason is the 7-foot-2 center Joaquim Boumtje Boumtje.
LOL
The reply included a bunch more info about him, and noted he is the youngest player in Div. 1 men's basketball. So I was curious about how his age compared to our player, Nikola Kusturica. They gave a bunch more information about how the two compare. Joaquim is exactly -- as in to the day -- 1 month younger than Nikola.
They added:
The parallel between these two is wild. Not only are they the most talked-about 17-year-old freshmen in college basketball, but they both actually played in the FC Barcelona youth system before coming stateside to play in the NCAA.
