Williamson injured his knee on a freak play in the first minute of Wednesday’s game against North Carolina. His left shoe ripped apart, causing him to do the splits and hurt his knee. He did not return to the game.
Duke only has five regular season games left before the ACC Tournament and NCAA Tournament. A date for Williamson’s potential return is not yet known.
