One of the big themes of the presason has been Duke’s depth. This has recently been supplanted by a concern with Duke’s injuries. Harry Giles and Sean Obi are still getting over knee issues, Jayson Tatum has a sprain and in the first exhibition game Matt Jones tweaked his hamstring and Grayson Allen injured his shoulder.
Allen left the court after his initial injury then came back to play and injured it again.
That’s a lot of early injuries though presumably Tatum will be back shortly and we’d be surprised if Jones and Allen aren’t back for this Friday’s exhibition game against Augustana.
