Duke big man Harry Giles, the top-ranked player in the freshman class, made his college debut Monday night against Tennessee State, entering the game with 11:27 left in the first half.Giles finished with no points, no rebounds and 0-for-1 shooting in four first-half minutes, but his return gave the Blue Devils the full complement of star freshmen who made the team No. 1 in preseason polls.First game, that was just shaking the rust off and getting the kinks out, Giles said. I think each day, each game, each practice, Ill get better.The 6-foot-10 Giles, who dealt with several knee injuries in high school, missed the teams first 11 games of the season after undergoing a procedure in October. Duke was without two other heralded freshmen -- Jayson Tatum (ESPN No. 3) and Marques Bolden (No. 16) -- for the first eight games because of foot injuries.Duke announced in early October that Giles would miss about six weeks after arthroscopic surgery on his left knee.Giles missed his entire sophomore season in high school after he suffered a torn ACL, MCL and meniscus in his left knee while playing for the U.S. in international competition.

Giles was able to go through multiple practices over the weekend and should see limited minutes against Elon.With the freshmen out of the lineup early and Grayson Allen battling foot injuries, sophomore Luke Kennard and senior Amile Jefferson have carried much of the load.
