Duke Blue Devils guard Matt Jones (ankle) out vs. Louisville game

DURHAM, N.C. -- Duke guard Matt Jones will miss the Blue Devils' game at No. 18 Louisville on Saturday with a sprained left ankle.

Team spokesman Cory Walton said Friday that X-rays performed on Jones' ankle showed no fractures, and an MRI confirmed the injury was a sprain.

Jones was hurt in the first half of the 20th-ranked Blue Devils' 74-73 victory over No. 5 North Carolina on Wednesday. He landed awkwardly after a shot, had to be helped off the court by two teammates and spent the second half on crutches.
