Duke’s Kyle Filipowski sore, avoided major injury after court storming incident in loss to Wake Forest

Duke star Kyle Filipowski has avoided a major injury after he was hit by fans storming the court at Wake Forest on Saturday, head coach Jon Scheyer confirmed on Monday.

Though Filipowski is still “a little bit sore,” he didn’t need to undergo any testing for structural damage on his left knee after the incident. His status for the Blue Devils’ game against Louisville on Wednesday, however, is still unknown.

Immediately after Wake Forest knocked off Duke 83-79 on Saturday afternoon, Demon Deacon fans stormed onto the court at the Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum to celebrate.
