The current betting odds have Arizona listed as a 5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Both of these teams are off to a 1-0 start this season and both teams won their first game of the season in a big way. Arizona was particularly impressive in their game as they scored over 120 points and didn't even allow 60 points in the game. Duke will have the home advantage here and they enter this game as the 2nd ranked team in the country, but Arizona is also ranked 12th and will be looking to use this game as a statement win after being dropped in the ranking so much from last season. Duke has a really good team but so does Arizona and this is going to be a game that goes back and forth between two really good teams as neither will want to give the edge to the other with a big lead. This is going to be a tight game that Arizona can win outright and keep close if they don't. The best way to place a bet here is on Arizona to cover the spread in this game.

“We have a lot of guys who have never worn an Arizona jersey so we really want to hammer home what our standards are. And I think for the most part, our guys check those boxes." - Tommy Lloyd after his team’s win against Morgan State in their last game on Monday.

“I think we look really good when we share the ball. When we share the ball and everyone's getting a touch, it goes from one side of the floor to another. That's what Scheyer's been emphasizing. We move the ball, we get paint touches, we get wide open shots.” - Tyrese Proctor after their win against Dartmouth in their last game on Monday.
