Duke star freshman Zion Williamsonmissed Tuesday night's game against Wake Forest as he continues to recover from a knee injury.

It marked the fourth consecutive missed game for Williamson, who leads the fourth-ranked Blue Devils in rebounding, blocks and steals and is their second-leading scorer.

Coach Mike Krzyzewski said this past weekend that the Blue Devils "can't and won't" rush Williamson back onto the court until he's fully healthy.

Williamson suffered a Grade 1 knee sprain on the first possession of a loss to North Carolina two weeks ago. Without him in the starting lineup, Duke has beat Syracuse and Miami but lost to Virginia Tech.
