Is Matthew Hurt Going To Get Any Help Offensively From His Teammates When Duke Takes On Georgia Tech Tonight In Atlanta?
Is Matthew Hurt going to get any help offensively from his teammates when Duke takes on Georgia Tech tonight in Atlanta?
Right now I don’t know the answer to that question what I do know is Matthew Hurt who played forty three minutes scored thirty seven points and carried Duke offensively he other night in 80-73 loss to Louisville in Durham.
Why?
Because Wendell Moore Jr. only contributed thirteen points in his thirty nine minutes on the court while DJ Steward contributed eight points while being on the court for thirty seven minutes .
In those thirty nine minutes that Wendell Moore played he was 3-6 1-3 from three point range while DJ Steward was 2-13 on field goals and 1-5 from three point range and Jeremy Roach was 1-5 on field goals and 0-4 from three point range while Jaemyn Brakefield was 0-1 from three point range and 1-2 on field goals while playing 12:48 minutes.”according to Duke vs. Louisville Box Score (PDF) - Duke University (goduke.com)

Moses Wright recorded his third-straight double-double with 31 points and 16 rebounds to lead Georgia Tech to its fourth-consecutive Atlantic Coast Conference win, a 84-77 triumph over visiting Syracuse
Georgia Tech grabbed an early 12-0 lead, the Jackets ran out to an 8-0 advantage just 1:01 into the game. However, unlike the rout at Miami, when Tech led 48-18 at halftime, Syracuse fought back from a 13-point first-half deficit (29-16) to take a 39-34 lead.
The lead switched hands twice in the opening minutes of the second half but a dunk by Wright gave Tech a 50-49 advantage with 14:23 to go and the Yellow Jackets never trailed the rest of the way. An 8-0 run midway through the half stretched the Jackets’ advantage to 10 points (63-53) and opened a span in which Tech made nine-straight field goals to lead by as many as 14 down the stretch. Six of the Jackets’ nine-straight made shots came on slam dunks – four by Wright and two by Jordan Usher.
The come-from-behind win marked the third time this season that Georgia Tech has overcome a halftime deficit to win (the Jackets also came from behind at halftime to defeat North Carolina on Dec. 30 and Notre Dame on Feb. 6). “according to an article on ramblinwreck.com
