It’s a rivalry game. It’s a revenge game for one team. It’s a chance for one team to sweep the regular season series. It’s Duke and Carolina, but with two teams in the Top-5, the game won’t have that much of an impact on NCAA Tournament seeding if Zion Williamson won’t play.
The Tar Heels romped the Blue Devils in Durham when Williamson went down in the first 30 seconds and North Carolina has continued its roll, while the Blue Devils have stumbled and struggled without the potential National Player of the Year.
If Virginia were to lose to Louisville at home on Saturday, this game between Duke and North Carolina would be for the No.
