Defending Vernon Carey Jr.
Posted Feb 7, 2020
Duke's Vernon Carey Jr., a load at 6-foot-10 and 270 pounds, has 11 double-doubles this season, including eight of the 20-point, 10-rebound variety. He is the engine of Duke's offense that ranks fourth nationally in adjusted offensive efficiency (117.2). UNC will counter with a skilled defensive technician in Garrison Brooks and a rangy Armando Bacot.
