Kansas Star Freshman Darryn Peterson to Have His Hamstring Injury Re-Evaluated

Duke's deep roster and Cameron Boozer helped secure a 78-66 win over Kansas, which missed key freshman Darryn Peterson due to a hamstring injury.

  • On Tuesday, No. 5 Duke Blue Devils defeated No. 24 Kansas Jayhawks 78-66 at the State Farm Champions Classic.
  • A lingering hamstring strain sidelined Darryn Peterson, Kansas freshman guard, who has not played since Nov. 11; Bill Self said, `He will be reevaluated at the end of the week.`
  • Duke dominated the glass, outrebounding Kansas 38-29 and recording 17 assists while Tre White led Kansas with 22 points and Flory Bidunga scored 14.
  • Bookmakers made Duke a sizable favorite, installing them as more than a 10-point favorite and listing Duke at moneyline-675, while Kansas must turn to other scorers with a 'next man up' message.
  • The expected Boozer–Peterson duel did not occur because Darryn Peterson was sidelined, but Cameron Boozer remains a marquee name after a 12-rebound outing and is listed among projected first-round picks.
