DURHAM, N.C. (AP) Duke says freshman forward Marvin Bagley III is available to play after missing two weeks with a sprained knee.

Duke spokesman Mike DeGeorge announced Bagley's status Saturday, roughly six hours before the fifth-ranked Blue Devils' game against Syracuse.

Bagley leads the Atlantic Coast Conference with averages of 21.2 points and 11.4 rebounds.

He sprained his right knee in the loss at North Carolina on Feb. 8 and missed four games. Duke went 4-0 in his absence.
