There were a lot of questions about Duke after the loss to Stephen F. Austin. Many of them were answered at Michigan State.
Playing without Cassius Stanley, out with what is apparently a hamstring injury, Duke just took it to Michigan State from beginning to end.
The Blue Devils forced 14 turnovers, most of them in the first half, blocked 11 shots and held Michigan State to 4-16 from behind the line.
The biggest battle of the game was between Tre Jones and Cassius Winston, who schooled him last March. Not this time: Jones had 20 points and 12 assists to Winston’s 12 and seven.
