The Blue Devils dispatched the Bison of Bucknell with very little strife 90-60. The Blue Devils used the game to work on solidifying lineups and working out the kinks on the offensive end.
Kyle Filipowski would exit the game in the first half with 4:04 left with an ankle injury and Duke only up 7, the Bison would cut that 7 point lead to 4 before Duke went on an 11-0 run to push the lead to 15 at the break.
The second half saw Flilipowski return the starting lineup and it also saw the Blue Devils score 29 points in the first 10 minutes of the half, going on a 29-17 run to push the lead to 27.
