Duke's March Madness Run Starts with Siena

0:00On March 19th, the Duke Blue Devils start their run for a sixth national title as the top overall seed in the NCAA tournament. They face 16 seed Sienna on Thursday at 2.50pm Eastern Time in Greenville, South Carolina. Duke heads in as a heavy favorite, powered by national player of the year contender, Cameron Booser, and the best defense in college hoops. Still, the East region looks brutal, packed with top five seeds boasting elite defenses and tough big men inside. Injuries add real pressure, with two starter sideline for the opener. Sophomore Center, Patrick Nongba, has foot soreness and set out recent games, while junior guard Caleb Foster deals with a fractured right foot from, the regular season finale. Coaches are playing it safe, especially with In Gong Ba's ongoing foot issues to his career. His return could come soon after Thursday, but Foster status stays murky for the whole tournament. Duke has not dropped a game without these two yet, so their depth faces a big early test
