Duke forward Maliq Brown will miss several weeks with a sprained knee, coach Jon Scheyer said Monday morning.
Brown suffered the injury in Saturday's win over Notre Dame.
"He'll miss an extended period of time here," Scheyer said on the weekly ACC Coaches Zoom. "He'll miss weeks."
Brown, a 6-foot-9 junior from Virginia, transferred from Syracuse to Duke last spring. He's provided Scheyer with a valuable frontcourt depth piece, and he's established himself as one of the best interior defenders in the ACC.
He played a key role in Duke's win over Auburn in early December, helping slow down Johni Broome late in the game.
