The Duke Blue Devils are expected to roll over Princeton with no problem on Tuesday night. Does Mike Krzyzewski’s team blow out their opponents though? The answer to that question is a resounding ‘yes’. The Blue Devils have won four straight games by 21 points or more and the last three have been by 30+ points.
Princeton has actually lost 2 of their last 3 games and runs one of the more lackluster offenses in college basketball ranking 222nd in scoring. The Tigers have looked better on O recently going for 85+ in four straight. That being said Duke is a whole different animal.
Princeton Tigers
Does Princeton have the depth to at least keep Tuesday’s contest within 30 points? The last time out vs. Iona all five starters totaled double figures. The Tigers have a bona fide scorer in Devin Cannady who has gone for 21+ in 5 of the last 7 contests. Princeton has lost 2 of their last 4 true road games and could be in trouble at Cameron Indoor.

The Tigers defense faces arguably the biggest test that anybody in college hoops will face this season up against Duke’s deep lineup. The Tigers have allowed 81, 89, and 92 points the last three contests and that came against St. Joe’s, Southern Illinois, and Iona. Opponents shoot 44% from the field vs. Princeton so far this year.
Duke Blue Devils
Is there any risk of Duke being complacent in Tuesday night’s game? The way they’ve played recently it doesn’t really look like it. The only threat to the Blue Devils will be rust as they’ll play for the first time in 10 days when they face Princeton.
Prior to a little layoff the Blue Devils were on a roll. In the first week of December they beat Stetson by 64 points, Hartford by 30, and Yale by 33. Yale is actually a common opponent between Princeton – and the Tigers lost 90-94 in OT.

What if Duke isn’t rusty in this game but instead come out fresh and rested? The Tigers played Saturday night vs. Iona in New Jersey. Not only has Duke had a long layoff, they’ve played at home since November 27th.
Zion Williamson and RJ Barrett are going to simply be too much for Princeton in this matchup. Barrett has 22+ in five straight and Williamson has 20+ in 3 of 5.
