This Duke Blue Devil team was in need of a winning streak heading into the post season. This game had zero influence on Duke’s seeding in the ACC Tournament but it probably did a lot for the psyche of a team that hasn’t played their best basketball as of late. Having lost 3 of 5 games getting two wins in a row was just what the doctor ordered. Duke was fortunate to win the game at UNC, needing overtime, luck and amazing clutch plays by Tre Jones and Wendell Moore.
Cut to this matchup vs UNC team that has played really good basketball winning 3 straight games.
