Some will start. Nelson is one of four freshmen who figure to have a huge impact at Florida, a team many expect to make a run at the Final Four. He's not a solid starter at point yet, but he will get plenty of time. Then there's Jason Gardner, the freshman point guard who figures to start at Arizona. The list goes on and on.
Experience is pretty good to have in college.
But I picked it up pretty easy. A lot of the AAU tournaments you play in get you ready. If these guys want competition, there's always plenty to be found. Dunleavy can play shooting guard, small forward and backup point, so he figures to be one of the more versatile of any of the Duke players. But the team itself may well live or die with the play of another freshman, Jason Williams, the 6-2 point guard from Metuchen, N.J., who stepped onto campus as a starter.
