Duke basketball: Blue Bloods getting set to clash in unorthodox way

The effects of COVID-19 on the sports world have been massive and drastic, but it has brought some unique ways of connecting players and incorporating fans into their personal lives which are typically private.

On Thursday afternoon that idea takes another step as college basketball players who attend blue blood schools will face off in a way that's never been done before.

Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky, and Villanova will head to the video game monitors for 'The Battle of the Blues: A Call of Duty COVID-19 Relief Tournament'.

For those who do not know, Call of Duty is a very popular video game among NBA players that is often streamed on Twitch when players are on their off days.
