To gauge what the No. 6 Blue Devils (2-1) have learned since last week when they lost to Michigan State, they'll receive a test Tuesday night when No. 5 Illinois (3-1) visits for an ACC/Big Ten Challenge game in Durham, N.C.

There has been unexpected extra preparation time for both teams, which had weekend games called off because of coronavirus issues with scheduled opponents. Illinois was to play Tennessee Martin, while Duke was slated to face Elon.

Both teams lost last week, with Duke falling at home to No. 8 Michigan State and the Fighting Illinois losing to No. 2 Baylor, 82-69, in Indianapolis.

Duke freshman Jalen Johnson is second on the team in scoring at 13 points per game, but just fifth in minutes played (24 per game). He has been hurt by fouls, costing him playing time.

Illinois freshman Adam Miller averages 14.5 points per game, second on the team behind Ayo Dosunmu's 23.8.

Reserve forward Giorgi Bezhanishvili's 15 points in the Baylor game marked his highest total in more than a calendar year.

Matthew Hurt and Jaemyn Brakefield were Duke's only double-figure scorers Friday night against Bellarmine, combining to make 10 of 12 3-point attempts. The rest of the Blue Devils combined to make just 3 of 14 attempts from beyond the arc.

Hurt had 21 points against Michigan State, giving the sophomore back-to-back games with 20 or more points for the first time.

Brakefield is among Duke's newcomers, with his shooting touch distinguishing him so far.

Illinois and Duke haven't met since the 2007 Maui Invitational. This will be the third meeting as part of the ACC-Big Ten Challenge, with Duke winning in 1999 in Chicago and in 2000 in Greensboro, N.C.

The Blue Devils hold the best record of any team in either league in ACC/Big Ten Challenge games at 19-2. They've won eight straight games as part of the series, while they're 9-0 at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

Duke leads the all-time series with the Illini, 5-2.
