Great news. All this says to me is that he will be back in time to play in the Duke ACC Invitational tourney and NCAA tourney. I’m one of the few that doesn’t need to see him tomorrow.
Now that I think about it, they probably shouldn’t have had the press conference before the UNC game, because nothing good could come from it.. because you don’t want UNC to know if he’s playing or not.. not knowing makes them have to practice for 2 different Duke teams..
But you also don’t want to have a press conference that gives no real answer either.. because it disappoints fans.
I disagree with taking our medicine. I still think we can beat the Holes Saturday. We need to rebound, shoot well from 3, and not give up easy buckets. We do that and they may receive a dose.Zion is super we all agree but that's a tough stage to be coming back and testing your knee. Maybe we should take our medicine Saturday and be ready for next week. I'd be fine with that. It's the not knowing part that sucks. It is what it is.
Something more worthwhile than you and I, I’d imagine.
About as clear as the MRI.I guess I am confused on the practice issue. I was under the impression that Zion had done some practice with contact, but now K says he hasn’t.
?
And this is exactly the point we made on the podcast this week for those who have tuned in.ding ding ding....that coupled with us getting blown-out in Cameron. If you tell me that Zion will be 100% healthy and will be in uniform next Thursday (Coach K has hinted at this multiple times) I will take that without blinking. The Carolina game may sting tomorrow, maybe not (I have faith in our guys and our leader to compete tomorrow), but I will gladly take our chances going forward if this is the last game Zion will be out.
I practice with contact almost every day. Got to stay in game shape even though I only get in every few weeks.Zion practicing with contact is day to day.![]()
I’m telling you, if we win this game tomorrow without Zion, it’s gonna be a bad day in chapel hill my goodness
About as clear as the MRI.
Just let go man...
It’s OK.
You can move on. Trust me on this.
