CORAL GABLES, Fla.– Duke guard Tyrese Proctor appeared to hurt his left knee late in the very first half of the second-ranked Blue Devils’ 97-60 win over Miami on Tuesday night, and there was no instant word on his status going forward.Proctor will have

X-rays and an MRI when the group gets back to North Carolina, coach Jon Scheyer said after the win– in which Proctor eclipsed the 1,000-point mark for his Duke profession.”I know he didn’t want to get it in this style,”Scheyer said.”We need to get him back, get X-rays, MRI. He got struck in the leg. That’s the extent of what I know. We’ll get him took a look at and taken care of.”Proctor was going backward in an effort to resist a Miami fast break when his left leg appeared to buckle when he planted his foot. His knee came up and Proctor, in obvious discomfort, hobbled off the court and into a nearby tunnel with 36.3 seconds left in the half.He did not return to the game, ending up with seven points in 14 minutes

. Isaiah Evans started the second half in Proctor’s location.”Isaiah, he’s developed himself with what he’s done,”Scheyer said.Proctor has actually begun 87 games for Duke over 3 seasons. He’s balancing 11.8 points this season, third-best on the

group behind Cooper Flagg( 19.4) and Kon Knueppel(13.5 ), and he leads heaven Devils with 64 3-pointers.
