Alright, I'm not gonna do what everybody thinks I'm gonna do and freak out about a November basketball injury but WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH OUR STAR PLAYERS AND WRIST INJURIES, YOU GUYS?

This really sucks for Gorgui as this game vs. a top five Duke team will be played on a fairly big stage, albeit competing against Notre Dame football, but still. It also stinks because Mason Plumlee is a handful and now he's surely going to be the focal point of Duke's offensive attack with Gorgui out of the game.

Prepare yourselves for a heavy dose of Zach Price and Stephan Van Treese at the 5 with a little Trez sprinkled in when necessary. And Russ doing more Russ things than ever.
