FORT BRAGG, N.C--Duke redshirt freshman F Marshall Plumlee will miss 6-8 weeks with a stress fracture in his left foot, the team announced today. Plumlee hurt himself in an informal practice last Wednesday. While the rest of the team participated in a practice with a few soldiers, Plumlee sat on the sideline with a boot on his left foot and crutches nearby.

Check back later today for more updates on Duke's two-day trip to Fort Bragg.

I guess if it's going to happen, now is better than mid-season. Hope you get healthy and back to full speed soon Marshall!

Heal quick!
