Before their first round game in the NCAA Tournament with Cal State Fullerton Friday in Greenville South Carolina what does Duke need to improve on ?

Their perimeter defense!

Why?

Because in the Atlantic Coast Conference Title game on Saturday in Brooklyn Duke lost 67-82.

Hunter Cattoor of Virginia Tech was 11-16 on field goals , 7-9 from 3 point range while he collected 4 rebounds , 1 assists and scored 31 points on the way to Virginia Tech winning the 2022 Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament in Brooklyn.

In their last regular season game which also happened be Mike Krzyzewski’s final home game against North Carolina as Duke’s Head Coach North Carolina scored 1.25 points per possession while Virginia Tech scored 1.24 points per possession.

Mike Krzyzewski had this to say about Duke’s defense the last couple games!

I thought our defense really took a dip. Before this next game, we have to get back to playing Duke defense. We’ll have a better chance of winning if we can do that.”
