Three things to watch for in 2020 finale and return of Duke basketball

What to watch for: Duke basketball must get Wendell Moore going

Despite all the issues the Duke basketball team has, the biggest remains the regression of Wendell Moore.

Since the opening night victory over Coppin State, Moore has a total of six points and 10 rebounds on 1-of-21 shooting, missing all seven of his 3-point attempts across four games.

Perhaps a two-week break was exactly what the sophomore needed in order to take a mental vacation and attack the final game of 2020 with a clear mind and then head into 2021 on a positive note.

Moore has all the tools to be a fantastic player, given his defensive abilities, length, and potential to get to the basket at will, but his complacency in shooting permitter jumpers have stunted his growth and seen him be removed from the starting lineup.

If Duke wants to maximize its potential this season and become the best team possible, Wendell Moore has to break out of his slump and return to the form many expected out of him prior to his second season in Durham.
