The Elon Phoenix will visit the #1 ranked Duke Blue Devils Friday night, and I think the visitors are spotted way too many points to pass up on here. Note that Elon is returning four players that averaged double-digits in points last season, and it lost by just a 72-61 score to Duke as a 26-point dog last season. Duke has lost its top two scorers from last season with Luke Kennard and Jayson Tatum moving on to the NBA. The Blue Devils are still the more talented side, but covering this many points in the first game of the season is far from easy.

My selection is an 8* play on Elon Phoenix.
