Duke's star freshman point guard Kyrie Irving suffered a toe injury in the second half of their game Saturday against Butler. He limped to the bench and came out of the game, but returned to the floor minutes later and appeared OK. He finished with 21 points, 17 in the second half.
But a source has reported that he missed practice Monday, and is now in a walking boot and will undergo an MRI to further evaluate the injury.
Irving, who some analysts rated as the top high school player in the country last year, has been sensational for the 8-0 Blue Devils so far. He is averaging 17.4 points, and 5.1 assists.

lol They could try Nolan Smith, Seth Curry, or even Tyler Thornton in a pinch!

[Lakeview Brave]

That is to bad, i was looking forward to seeing him play up close in person.

Well that should keep them under 100. Maybe.

Well that should keep them under 100. Maybe.

And if we can stay within 25 by halftime, we got 'em where we want 'em!
Expecting a MORAL victory tomorrow!

I'm much more concerned about scoring 40 points in the game rather than giving up 100.

I expect something closer to 75-38 than 107-64.

A Dookie told me the other day that this game will probably be Seth Curry's "coming out party". We'll see.

I tried to persuade my Dookie friend to treat his team to some bad seafood tonight! That didn't go over too well, but at least I am trying!

...then after sitting out die to transfer..
-- RS-Sophomore year at Duke: 40 shot attempts, 32.5% shooting, 45.5% on 22 3-pt FG attempts, 1 rpg, 1.7 asst/gm, 55 pts, 6.9 ppg

Interesting stats, but I wouldn't compare their soph years. Stephen was his team. Seth is just another spoke in the wheel for Duke.

Of course not, but his productivity on the court can't be denied.....

Per 40....

15.6 Points (6th on Duke; only Warren and Lemon are better for BU)

2.3 Rebounds (dead last for anyone on either team)

4.0 Assists (4th on Duke; only Eastman and Simms-Edwards are better for BU)

1.7 Turnovers (3rd on Duke; better than anyone for BU)

3.1 Steals (better than anyone on either team)

2.3 Assist/Turnover (better than anyone on either team)

Looks to me like his only real downfall is a lack of rebounding.

Stephen was a special player, no doubt, but he wasn't the entire Davidson team, either. They did reach the Elite 8 and fell just 2 points short of the Final Four to Kansas who the next weekend became champs. They had 3 other solid starters that also were quite competent.

Lovedale, Sander and Richards were solid players as well.

I too am concerned about the small amount of points BU will score, this could be a real embarrassing game and hurt our chances of getting on ESPN Sports channels in the future.
