Virginia Tech has pulled off two consecutive home upsets over Duke, and the Blue Devils will be without Zion Williamson as he continues to recover from a knee injury.
In Duke’s first game without Zion Williamson, R.J. Barrett carried the Blue Devils offensively with 30 points, seven assists and five rebounds, and shot 14-of-20 from the floor.
Alex O’Connell also punished the Syracuse zone by making five 3-pointers – but Duke may not be able to rely on O’Connell against the Hokies. In two games against Syracuse, O’Connell has scored a combined 36 points. His season-high against all other ACC opposition is seven points against Notre Dame.
Duke’s also had trouble at Cassell Coliseum in the past. The Blue Devils are 3-3 in their last six trips to Virginia Tech, with one of those wins coming in overtime. So, when should you watch?
Duke at Virginia Tech will begin at 7:00 p.m. ET on ESPN.
You can stream the game online via WatchESPN or by using the ESPN app.
