DURHAM, N.C. (AP) -- One of No. 9 Duke's projected starters is out indefinitely with a broken wrist. Team officials said Thursday that freshman Mason Plumlee, who played his high school ball at Christ School, fell hard during practice a day earlier and broke his left wrist. They say he injury will not require surgery, and will be evaluated weekly by the team's medical staff. The 6-foot-10 newcomer was expected to join his older brother Miles Plumlee in the Blue Devils' bulked-up frontcourt. He averaged 12 points and eight rebounds in a pair of exhibition routs. That makes two projected starters who won't be in the lineup Friday night when Duke opens the season against North Carolina-Greensboro. Guard Nolan Smith must sit out two games for playing in an unsanctioned summer league.
Plumlee told his high school coach David Gaines that he feels he will be able to play in 3 weeks. He will wear a softcast to protect the injury, which was basically a couple of broken bones on the top part of his wrist, but luckily there was no ligament damage.
