Update on Flip, Foster
- Thread starter ConorONeill

What moment did Foster get hurt in the game? I totally missed it watching the game.
Man Duke just has to get healthy. Speedy recovery for both of them. Not worried about the loss Saturday came down to the end and Wake just finished better. Duke will be fine just need both them back soon.
Thanks Conor. I would like to think Duke can handle Louisville without Caleb and probably without Flip. If nothing else it will give Stewart some court time without looking over his shoulder (at least until he gets his 5th foul).
But we'll definitely need to be at full strength for the last 3 games of the regular season.

Louisville is not good at all, but not having both makes that game alot harder and could turn it into a legit battle. Really hoping Flip can go.
The game back in January was a 5 point game with 7 minutes left. I know Duke is home this time but hopefully they both can play Wednesday even if reduced minutes.
I look forward to the next wave of Duke injuries once we get these 2 back.
I shouldn't laugh at that, Chris. But you did get a chuckle out of me. Unfortunately, at this point, we should just expect it.
just need the guys healthy. If Flip and/or Foster cannot go on Wednesday night, great opportunity for Young/Stewart/Blakes/Power to build on their confidence!!!!
I don't keep up with other teams injuries but we have a ton of injuries.
The dreaded foot issue now for Foster. We all know he won't play tomorrow. Hopefully Flip can go.

I'd imagine Foster out for a few games. Hopefully he's back for the cheats.
I hate this for Caleb. I feel like he was progressing and getting more confident. He and Stewart need all the PT they can get so they can be ready to step in next season.
Lift, same here buddy. IIRC, Foster hit a couple 3s against Wake, and he has been slowly shooting better and driving to the cup. OFC
Foster week to week which makes me nervous. Hopefully we get him back for ACCT
Him being in a boot. Wonder if we even see him again this year
We all know that means he's got no shot at being back before the tournament. All we can hope is he's back for March 21-22
Do you think Reeves and Schutt are still with the team? All haven't seen them on the bench, or any videos. May have missed them but don't think I did.
Caleb, man, what a bummer for that kid. He was playing well before this foot BS happened that seemingly occurs with every team we put on the court each year. Our chances of seeing him for UVA, State, or the Cheaters are almost 0%. Let's hope he gets healthy, and we see him get at least a little burn in DC. We need him for a serious run in the Big Dance.
I am not optimistic for Foster’s return at minimum, before the NCAA tournament.
This is going to force Duke to go bigger at times.
Never know, it could end up being a blessing in disguise if Power and Stewart’s increase in minutes results in a rapid increase in development.
During the game we saw Flip, Power and Stewart out there at the same time among other bigger lineups.
