Its not like they have a legit big man to begin with. I'm not going to lie..i hope this keeps him out for our game on the 31st

"The Associated Press Duke sophomore men's basketball center Brian Zoubek, for the second time in six months, fractured the fifth metatarsal in his left foot in practice on Monday but is not expected to need surgery. Zoubek broke the same toe in the same foot and had it surgically repaired two days after injuring it back on July 9. There is not yet a timetable for his return from the second injury, but Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said Zoubek would resume playing as soon as he is physically able. "This is a setback for Brian and for the team," Krzyzewski said. "He worked hard to recover from the injury over the summer and was beginning to solidify his role with the team." The 7-foot-1 center is averaging 4.3 points and 3.7 rebounds while shooting a team-high 59.5 percent "

"Krzyzewski wanted to see that his team was starting fresh in 2008 after a long break. He shook things up at the beginning, starting Smith for Paulus, who has started 73 of his 81 career games; and starting Zoubek for Lance Thomas, who is still not quite 100 percent yet after suffering a high ankle sprain before the Albany game. "

he was starting and now both of their centers are hurt
