Duke's Amile Jefferson: Foot injury in the past
Jefferson (foot) is participating in Duke scrimmages and appears to be going at full capacity.
Analysis:
Jefferson missed the better part of the 2015-16 season due to a foot injury, and was later granted a medical redshirt, making him eligible to return for a fifth season. He'll provide the Blue Devils with size, athleticism and experience in the frontcourt, and should be a significant contributor in the scoring and rebounding departments. With fellow forward and top recruit Harry Giles set to miss six weeks following knee surgery, Jefferson won't have to look over his shoulder either.
