The dominant theme for this team, at this point, is injuries: with Nolan Smith still out (concussion), Lance Thomas (ankle), Brian Zoubek (broken nose), and Jon Scheyer (less serious ankle injury). The good news, as much as there is, is that Thomas' ankle isn't as bad as it was originally thought to be. The second bit of good news, or silver lining if you prefer, is that there will be a lot of time between games, at least until the second game Duke plays in Atlanta. Whatever happens there, there are several more days off before NCAA play starts. So lots of time for rehab and treatment.
