Duke Basketball Named Betting Favorite for Championship

News summary

The Duke Blue Devils are emerging as strong contenders for the NCAA Tournament, recently securing a top seed in analyst Andy Katz's projections. They are currently on a 10-game winning streak, with impressive performances from freshman Cooper Flagg, who scored a record 42 points against Notre Dame. Duke is also the betting favorite to win the national championship, with odds at +500, following a dominant start to their ACC season where they have seen an average winning margin of over 20 points. Despite the absence of reserve big man Maliq Brown due to a knee injury, Duke's roster remains formidable, bolstered by its high rankings in offensive and defensive efficiency. The Blue Devils are also projected to maintain their undefeated status in ACC play, facing off against a struggling Miami team next. With their combination of talent and momentum, Duke is poised for a deep tournament run this spring.
