Duke has been playing without the services of its top three freshman all season, but has still found ways to win. Well, now the Blue Devils will have Jayson Tatum, the No. 3 recruit according to ESPN in last year's class, back for the game against Maine on Saturday night.

Tatum is coming back a little later than originally planned as his foot injury was believed to be a two or three week recovery, but he's taken all of November after suffering the injury in late October.
