WASHINGTON — Duke basketball has lost one game this season when freshmen Zion Williamson, RJ Barrett and Cam Reddish have all played.
Once.
Back in November. In Maui. To Gonzaga, a deep and experienced team.
In other words, if the Blue Devils are healthy, they are damn near impossible to beat. Except that the University of Central Florida nearly beat them last weekend, using a 7-foot-6-inch center to protect the rim, a zone early, man-to-man late (with concepts of a zone), and a career performance from former Michigan Wolverines wing, Aubrey Dawkins.
