Duke faces Wake Forest. Our college basketball odds series has our Duke Wake Forest prediction, odds and pick for Tuesday.

This is a game you should stay away from, but the two Duke injuries are hard to ignore here. Wake might play well for 20 minutes, but the other 20 minutes are a disaster, and that kind of tendency catches up with teams. This is a Duke team which has shown it can adjust and adapt. Wake Forest needs to find more toughness and consistency at both ends of the floor, or else this team will be an NIT team. On the other hand, Wake Forest guard Tyree Appleby — the transfer from Florida who is absolutely essential to the Demon Deacons’ chances of doing anything of note this season — got injured in a recent game against Appalachian State. The Demon Deacons blew a large lead against LSU and nearly lost to App State but won on a buzzer-beater.

The Blue Devils were disjointed and made a lot of errors that they don’t typically make. Part of this may be the natural result of not practicing a lot over the break, but in fairness, that’s probably true for Wake Forest as well. And so is his fellow Brit Cameron Hildreth, who showed some real toughness in this game. Missing Lively and Whitehead were not why Duke lost.

Duke certainly had opportunities but couldn’t capitalize.

In their first game in 10 days, the Blue Devils have looked far from their best against the Demon Deacons. A strong closing sequence has Duke in position to make a second-half run; if they get more on the offensive end from Roach and Filipowski and improve on their 3-of-15 mark from 3-point range, the Blue Devils’ winning streak could still reach five games. The preseason All-ACC First Team selection looked healthy in his first game in two weeks, but it was nonetheless a struggle for him in his first half back on the court: Roach was held scoreless on four shots, while leading scorer Kyle Filipowski checks in with five points on 2-of-7 shooting at the halfway point. Scheyer went to freshman sharpshooter Jaden Schutt in the first half against Maryland Eastern Shore in Roach’s absence, but only seven Blue Devils have entered the action so far in Tuesday’s game. The Demon Deacons dominated the boards in the opening minutes, taking advantage of second chances and jumping out to an 11-4 lead. With the 7-foot-1 Lively out of the starting lineup, graduate student Ryan Young stepped in at center, bringing back Duke’s early-season starting five for the first time since Nov.

"We take pride in that being a strength of ours. "It's toughness, and it's effort. But perhaps the overriding factor in Duke basketball's 81-70 road loss to the unranked Wake Forest Demon Deacons (9-4, 1-1 ACC) on Tuesday night was the missing extra effort in corralling rebounds and loose balls.

That didn't happen for the Blue Devils and they returned home from Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum having absorbed an 81-70 loss to the Demon Deacons.

Filipowski entered the game averaging a team-best 14.2 points per game and having reached double figures in all 12 Duke games this season. But that’s only part of the solution for Duke. The idea being, he knows what he’s doing so give him a game off to get that toe healthy. So the game at Wake Forest was Roach’s first in two weeks. But Roach didn’t distinguish himself against the Demon Deacons. 10, Duke’s last game prior to Tuesday night, when the Blue Devils beat Maryland-Eastern Shore, 82-55. 4 at Clemson and Jan. Of late, he’d been showing that, twice topping the 20-point plateau to push his season scoring average to 13.1 points per game. Because of that, Scheyer gave him a day off on Dec. His veteran status was a big reason why he didn’t play on Dec. Freshmen Dariq Whitehead and Dereck Lively being unavailable left Duke a lesser team. Yet each player scored just nine points apiece against Wake Forest.

[Kyle Filipowski](https://goduke.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/kyle-filipowski/18358) also struggled in the first true road game of his career with nine points on 4-of-14 shooting and missing all six of his 3-point attempts. [Tyrese Proctor](https://goduke.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/tyrese-proctor/18366), would hit three 3-pointers in the span of four offensive possessions to bring the Blue Devils within seven, 62-55, with 8:04 to play but the inability to get a stop defensively — and a rebound — cost Duke its chance to make a miraculous comeback. [Jeremy Roach](https://goduke.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/jeremy-roach/18163), returning from missing Duke’s last game due to a [toe injury](https://balldurham.com/2022/12/14/duke-basketball-scheyer-decision-roach/), did not have any explosiveness in his game as he only mustered nine points on the night with four fouls and five turnovers.

But his quickness, especially given his size, has been key on the fast break: even if he doesn’t always finish the play, his presence clears space for guards like Jeremy Roach to attack the rim. Lively has hardly been a world-beater on the glass, averaging just 3.7 boards per game, but his ability to keep balls alive doesn’t show up in the box score. It’s perhaps not a coincidence, then, that Kyle Filipowski had one of his worst rebounding performances against Wake Forest with a mere six: the Demon Deacons were able to key on him in their box outs, rather than having to split their attention between him and Lively.

This coaching staff either cannot come to an agreement on a rotation or simply do not like what they see. All players are going to have off nights but the bigger issue with Roach is that at no point did he look to be aggressive or try to rally his teammates. This was obvious within the first four minutes as Wake Forest was able to secure multiple offensive rebounds that led to second chance opportunities. Duke got outplayed from the opening tip and for the first time this season lost to a Wake Forest (9-4, 1-1 ACC) team with much less talent, 81-70. [Dereck Lively](https://goduke.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/dereck-lively-ii/18359) and [Dariq Whitehead](https://goduke.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/dariq-whitehead/18356) and, to be expected, is not the same team with the freshmen duo sidelined. Jon Scheyer and a short handed Duke basketball team got its first taste of ACC life on the road as Wake Forest outplayed, and out-coached, the young and inexperienced Blue Devils.
