DURHAM, N.C. -- This isnt the Duke team that was picked No. 1 in the preseason.Thats no slight to these current Blue Devils, who in their present composition have been plenty strong enough to win seven of eight, take down Michigan State and earn a No. 5 ranking.But beneath the surface, one question lingers: How much better will this team be once three injured freshman big men -- Harry Giles, Marques Bolden and Jayson Tatum -- are finally healthy enough to play?Coach Mike Krzyzewski says its still not quite time to find out.Were getting there, but itll be a while, Krzyzewski said after the 78-69 victory over the Spartans on Tuesday night. We just have to keep playing our butts off and keep trying to win. Every teams season is a little bit different. We just have to run our race the way were running it, and eventually, hopefully, well get all those guys.Those three were major reasons why Duke (7-1) was the favorite to win the Atlantic Coast Conference and voted to the top spot in the preseason polls.But the Blue Devils insist theyre not content to merely tread water until those three are ready to go.We know how good we are -- were still improving, and we know when we incorporate these guys back in, were going to be that much better, All-America guard Grayson Allen said. But right now were very confident with what we have. Were not playing a waiting game where were waiting for those guys to get back. Were going full speed and approaching every game that way, and I think the group that we have has done a great job fighting with a shorter bench, just being tough and really playing a lot of minutes.In the past week, the three five-star freshmen have taken part in pregame warmups, with an inordinate amount of attention being paid to what happens in those layup lines. Bolden and Giles have gone through those drills at closer to full speed than Tatum.Giles had his left knee scoped in early October to clean up scar tissue after he tore ligaments three years ago. Tatum sprained his foot during a practice in front of NBA scouts later that month, and Bolden suffered a lower leg injury during the teams first exhibition game.Krzyzewski has often emphasized his teams long-term goals over any short-term jolt that might come from rushing them into action before theyre healthy -- and risking re-injury. He said during the preseason that Duke is going to try to conduct our season appropriately because the key question is will we have all the talent available at the time you have the opportunity to win the championship?But after the Michigan State win, he acknowledged the frustration his freshmen feel at having to watch such a high-intensity game from the bench.The thing thats most frustrating to the kids who are hurt -- a game like tonight, man, thats what they live for, he said. These guys want to be in that game.Depth wasnt supposed to be an issue for this seemingly loaded Duke team. But those three injuries, plus a nagging toe injury that has kept Allen from practicing, once again has the Blue Devils trying to figure things out.Duke played just six men against Michigan State -- the starting five, plus reserve big man Chase Jeter -- in what felt like a flashback to 2015-16 when the injury-ravaged Blue Devils routinely went only six or seven deep.We had visions of, `Man, our practices are going to be hellacious, five-on-five, Krzyzewski said.
