Next up for Duke basketball is Round II with UNC and if Zion Williamson isn’t ready to go, as Coach K suggested, then it will be more difficult for Duke. Even so, the Blue Devils won’t have to get ready on the fly. They’ll know what they have going in either way.
In Durham, Duke couldn’t contain Luke Maye and Cam Johnson as Maye hit for 30 and Johnson 26.
Tre Jone did yeoman’s work on his guy as usual, limiting Coby White to nine points.
There was no getting past the disruption of Williamson's shoe blowout though.
