For a fourth straight game Duke held an opponent to below 60 points. I dont think we need Kenpom stats to know that Duke has improved a tremendous amount on defense. There were a plethora of subplots in Duke’s 60-44 victory against the Syracuse Orange on Saturday night. Firstly the return of freshman star Marvin Bagley III. Marvin Bagley III had been out with a knee injury that had the 6’11 freshmen missing 4 games. The lunatic fringe that resides in every fanbase, Duke included, likes to affix their own storylines to the fact that Duke was uber cautious with this probably first round draft pick.
