No matter his role, No. 9 Duke needs a steady Jeremy Roach to be at its best

DURHAM, N.C. — Whether in the starting lineup or coming off the bench, Jeremy Roach is a key player in Duke’s rotation this season.

The 6-1 sophomore guard found himself in both roles, in and out and back into the starting lineup, for the Blue Devils over the past two weeks.

Despite that, he’s still played in 76.7% of the minutes in Duke’s 18 games this season. Only junior Wendell Moore (82.2%) and freshman star Paolo Banchero (77%) have played more for the Blue Devils (15-3, 5-2 ACC).
