The Dukes should experiment with a 3-2 zone that makes use of Hronsky & Jake on the wings with combinations of Dusan, F. Drame, Tre, & Dixon in the back. This would prevent Dusan from having to chase stretch bigs, slow down Dixon's fouling, & help control opponents 3 pt shooting due to the added length on the perimeter.

This doesn't make sense for the whole game or every opponent but, it is the sort of thing good coaches utilize to keep mismatches to a minimum, give opposing coaches more to prepare for, & keep your own best players on the court longer.

If players are as bought-in on defense as they appear to be right now, they can bring the same effort & energy to a zone as they currently do to man-to-man for 10 minutes a game.

Good point.  The move to zone sometimes in games would make preparing for the Dukes that much harder.
