Mike Krzyzewski and the Duke basketball program finalized details for their multi-team event in Durham.
When Duke basketball opted out of the Battle 4 Atlantis, which will be held in South Dakota, many were confused, but the Blue Devils had a plan to host their own midseason tournament event in Durham, Dec. 4-5, to raise awareness for social and racial justice.
The reasoning for hosting their own event was completely justified, but concerns were raised by many about the competition level the Blue Devils could lure to Cameron Indoor Stadium given the state of the sport and the fact that many teams are traveling to various bubbles to play in their events.
