Sports Illustrated Picks: UNC-Duke headlines intriguing weekend slate

Posted Mar 3, 2017
The Tar Heels are a different team than the one that lost in Cameron Indoor Stadium three weeks ago. That night, they were without forward Isaiah Hicks. Also, forward Theo Pinson played but he had missed the previous three games with an injury. Those guys are at full strength, Duke is hobbling, and the game is in the Dean Dome. Pretty easy call.
