Mike Krzyzewski To Return To The Bench As Duke Hosts Pittsburgh

Some fans are probably thinking man that was a long four weeks without hall of fame coach Mike Krzyzewski as Duke went 2-3 in his absence as associate head coach Jeff Capel who was acting as the head coach led Duke to victories over Wake Forest  and Notre Dame on the road after losing to NC State.at home.  

Duke was down ten at one point before coming back to beat Wake Forest and winning 85 -83 on a Luke Kennard three pointer with 6.6 seconds left in regulation. 

On the road at Notre Dame Monday Duke played their most complete game of the season winning 84-74 behind 21 points from Grayson Allen and 19 from Jayson Tatum while Luke Kennard and Matt Jones each scored 16 points. 

How do you think Jeff Capel did subbing for Mike Krzyzewski? I tip my hand to Jeff Capel for leading Duke to two big road wins and you should too!
