The Duke Blue Devils will travel to Miami to take on the Hurricanes to try to keep their hopes alive of making the NCAA tournament. If the Blue Devils rattle off a few more wins before the ACC tournament they could have the resume that will qualify them for the tourney. Miami on the other hand will try to play spoiler as their hopes of a tournament berth are most likely long gone.
Duke Blue Devils
Duke opened ACC play with a 3-0 record, but it lost its next three games to Virginia Tech, Pittsburgh and Louisville. The Blue Devils bounced back with wins over Georgia Tech and Clemson. KenPom still has the Blue Devils as a top 25 team after taking down Clemson this past weekend.
Matthew Hurt leads Duke with 18.7 points and 7.8 rebounds per game. He is hitting an efficient 53.8 percent of his attempts. Hurt is also drilling 44.4 percent of his attempts from beyond the arc. Jalen Johnson has come on as of late after missing some time due to an injury from earlier in the season. Johnson is averaging 12.0 points and 7.4 rebounds overall.
Duke averages 74.17 points per game and allows 70.17 points a night. The Blue Devils are shooting 44.86 percent from the field and 32.99 percent from downtown.
Miami Hurricanes
Jim Larranaga’s squad has struggled with injuries and blowing leads all season. The Hurricanes have missed two of their starting guards for much of the year. They have now lost their last four games, falling to Syracuse, Notre Dame, Florida State, and Wake Forest.
Senior guard Chris Lykes, an All-ACC selection, has missed a ton of games this season with an ankle injury. Lykes was expected to be the leading scorer and distributor this year for the Canes. Sophomore guard Isaiah Wong has taken over that role, scoring 17.4 points per game. He is questionable for this contest though as he rolled his ankle in the loss to Wake Forest on Saturday.
The Hurricanes are hitting an effective field goal percentage of 47.5 percent, which is #264 in the country. They have also dealt with turnover issues, ranking #203 in turnover rate.
