No. 12 Duke scored just 21 points as an entire team in the first half against No. 14 Virginia's vaunted pack-line defense, but freshman phenom Jayson Tatum exploded for 21 second-half points of his own in a 65-55 win for the Blue Devils.
That first half was a physical grind for both teams. Duke scored just two points in the first six minutes and had a symmetric two points in the final six minutes. But the halftime message was clear: Get the ball to the guy who has been sensational in big games all season long.
