Trevor Keels - Dealing with short-term issue Coach Mike Krzyzewski indicated after Saturday's game versus Syracuse that Keels (lower leg) may not play Tuesday but isn't dealing with a long-term problem, Brendan Marks of The A...

Impact Keels had started every game prior to Saturday but was unavailable for the Blue Devils for this one following a calf injury suffered late in Tuesday's game against Florida State. Jeremy Roach picked up the start in his absence and would likely be in line to do so again Tuesday should Keels miss out again.

Jeremy Roach - Getting start Saturday Roach will start Saturday's game against Syracuse.

Impact Roach rejoins the starting five after three games in a bench role due to Trevor Keels (lower leg) sitting out the contest. Roach has averaged north of 32 minutes in his starts this season while not topping 29 in his three bench appearances, so he could be in line for a slightly expanded role as well.

Trevor Keels - Will not play Saturday Keels (lower leg) will not play Saturday against Syracuse, Stephen Wiseman of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

Impact Keels suffered his calf injury in the loss to Florida State earlier in the week and will not be available for Saturday's contest. Jeremy Roach is set to start in Keels' stead and Keels' next chance to return comes Tuesday against Clemson.

Trevor Keels - Not participating in warmups Keels (calf) is not warming up for Duke ahead of their matchup with Syracuse, Steve Wiseman of The News & Observer reports.

Impact Keels was expected to be a game-time decision for the Blue Devils, but he is not warming up. The 6-foot-4 freshman has started all 17 games for Duke this season, putting up 11.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.9 steals on 31.5 minutes per game. It appears unlikely that Keels will suit up today, and if that's the case, Joey Baker figures to get more minutes.

Trevor Keels - Doubtful for Saturday Keels (calf) is unlikely to play in the game against Syracuse on Saturday.

Impact Keels has yet to miss a game for Duke this season so it's unclear how they will handle his absence. If Keels doesn't play Joey Baker may see more minutes in his place but it will be hard to replace Keels production.

Jeremy Roach - Six dimes in OT loss Roach registered six points (2-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and six assists in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 79-78 1OT loss to Florida State.

Impact Roach has now been held out of the starting lineup for three consecutive games, though he still serves as Duke's primary point guard despite handing off some of those responsibilities to Wendell Moore. Opportunity may await, however, as starting shooting guard Trevor Keels went down with a lower-leg issue, and not many details have been disclosed yet. Should the Blue Devils find themselves in a need of another backcourt starter Saturday against Syracuse, Roach would be a leading candidate to fill that void.

Paolo Banchero - Standout effort in defeat Banchero recorded 20 points (6-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-9 FT), 12 rebounds, seven assists and one block in 42 minutes during Tuesday's 79-78 OT loss to Florida State.

Impact Banchero continues to nonchalantly go about his business in what is shaping up to be a potential All-American campaign. Tuesday was his third double-double of the season and also a career-best assist mark, which helps negate the fact he committed four turnover for the second consecutive contest. Banchero has already scored in double figures in all 17 games this season, but he may be called upon for even more offense in the short term with teammate Trevor Keels dealing with a calf injury of undetermined severity.

Trevor Keels - Dealing with calf injury Keels (calf) is suffering from a calf issue of unknown severity, per head coach Mike Krzyzewski, Josh Graham of WSJS Sports reports.

Impact Keels suffered the injury in the second half of Tuesday's game against FSU, but the severity of the injury has not been revealed yet. Keels has started in all 17 games for Duke, putting up 11.9 points, 3.6 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.9 steals on 31.5 minutes per game this season. If Keels misses time, Jeremy Roach and Joey Baker should see additional playing time for the Blue Devils.

Trevor Keels - Suffers lower leg injury Keels exited Tuesday's game against Florida State with a right lower leg injury and is doubtful to return.

Impact Keels appeared to be in significant pain after suffering the injury during the second half, so it's not surprise he's unlikely to return Tuesday. He had nine points (3-11 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals before going down with the injury and should be considered questionable for Saturday's matchup with Syracuse.
