Duke basketball legends predict Blue Devils will lose

Duke basketball legends Jay Bilas and Jay Williams, now ESPN analysts, do not predict the Blue Devils will win the NCAA Tournament. Bilas expects them to lose in the Final Four, while Williams sees them reaching the title game but losing to Florida. Duke faces a challenging path in the tournament, with a potential matchup against No. 2 seed Alabama in the Elite Eight. Freshman Cooper Flagg is expected to return from an ankle injury that sidelined him during the ACC tournament. Despite winning the ACC championship without Flagg, both analysts believe Duke will not secure their sixth national title this year.
