Duke's top-seated basketball team could get a big boost in the NCAA tournament, with Guard Caleb Foster possibly returning from a foot injury this week. Coach John Shire shared optimistic updates on a recent podcast, saying what started as a 1 in a million chance has improved steadily. He even mentioned an outside shot at Friday's game, though Foster aimed to return even sooner. Foster broke his right foot on March 7 against North Carolina in the regular season finale. He had surgery the next day and has sat out the ACC tournament, plus Duke's first two tournament wins. Freshman Caden Booser has stepped up nicely in his place, but Foster offers extra experience and grit that could help in the tough matchups ahead. The Blue Devil Space fifth-seated St. John's at 710 PM, Friday in the East regions to my finals in Washington, D.C., with Michigan State taking on. Connecticut in the other game, setting up a regional final Sunday. From your city, powered by AI, this is Durham News Today.
