Duke Basketball: Javin DeLaurier’s shooting streak shows grasp of role

It’s been thirty days — will reach at least 35 — since Duke basketball big man Javin DeLaurier has missed a shot.

His current number of consecutive made field goals stands at 14, six shy of the mark of Alaa Abdelnaby, who holds the program and ACC record.
