DURHAM, N.C. (AP) — Duke hasn’t missed a beat with Alexis Jones running the show.
Since sliding over to play point guard after Chelsea Gray was injured, the flashy freshman has played with supreme confidence — and her versatility and leadership have kept the Blue Devils flying high entering the NCAA tournament.
Jones’ three highest-scoring games have come in the absence of Gray, the Atlantic Coast Conference co-player of the year.
Her run was capped by a 24-point performance in the ACC championship game that led to her selection as the MVP of the tournament.
