Krzyzewski said that Plumlee's brother, freshman Mason Plumlee, is recovering well from a wrist injury suffered in the preseason. "My hope is that after exams, he'll be ready to go," Krzyzewski said. Duke will play four games, including the two in New York, before exams, then returns to the court Dec. 15 against Gardner-Webb.
It will be interesting to see who loses minutes after Mason Plumlee returns. While Ryan Kelly was the odd man out prior to the younger Plumlee's injury, Kelly has the 5th highest +/- total on the team. Likely Plumlee will work himself in slowly, but Brian Zoubek could be the player losing playing time come conference play.
