Patrick Ngongba missed the ACC Tournament with a foot injury and now he'll likely have two more days to let it heal.
Duke sophomore center Patrick Ngongba II was sidelined for the ACC Tournament with a foot injury, and though he was seen in a walking boot in Charlotte, the expectation was that he would return to the starting lineup for the NCAA Tournament.
Instead, on Wednesday, Jon Scheyer announced that it’s “very unlikely” that Ngongba will play
While it’s a concerning update that Ngongba isn’t ready to go just yet, it’s undoubtedly the right call for Scheyer to treat his starting center with a little extra caution.
