March 8 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY
ESPN
This was the first time I've seen Duke play this season and my goodness is it fun to watch Jayson Tatum.
He's 6-8, but is perfectly capable of driving and either scoring in a variety of ways at the rim or distributing like a guard, and the freshman had a 20-point, four-assist day in a 79-72 win for the Blue Devils.
Luke Kennard shook off a tough first half (three points, 1-of-9 shooting) to score 17 on 8-of-11 shooting in the second (Frank Jackson also played very well & scored 20 points).
Tatum and Kennard are the kind of duo that when both playing well can carry a team to a league championship. I'm not saying Duke is going to win this league championship, but they might if Kennard/Tatum keep playing like they did in Wednesday's second half.
