Saturday night’s exhibition is the first of two for the Duke basketball team, who will also face off against Fort Valley State on Oct. 30 in preparation for the season opener at Madison Square Garden against the Kansas Jayhawks on Nov. 5. Fans not in attendance can catch the game on ACC Network with tipoff coming at 7 p.m. EST.
Squaring off at Cameron against the reigning Divison II National Champion is a yearly tradition for Mike Krzyzewski’s squad that began in 2007 against Barton College. It will also be the second time in three years that Duke welcomes the Bearcats of Northwest Missouri State.
