Duke is undoubtedly one of the most talented teams in the NCAA Tournament, but they’ve been plagued by an injury to Amile Jefferson and inconsistency all season. If Brandon Ingram and Grayson Allen can step up now that it’s time for the NCAA Tournament, though, the Blue Devils can get by anyone they come up against. However, UNC Wilmington will be looking to pull off the upset, led by Craig Ponder, Chris Flemmings, and a slew of talented guards into the Seahawks’ first NCAA Tournament game since 2006. With in-state bragging rights on the line, this is one heck of a way to get the First Round of the NCAA Tournament underway.
This game will be broadcast on CBS with live streaming on March Madness Live, which can be accessed for free for three hours per day online or through the app. Unlimited streaming is available via login with a cable or satellite subscription.
