When Duke played at Pitt in Pittsburgh 10 days ago, the Panthers had no answer for the Blue Devils.
On Saturday, at Cameron Indoor Stadium, this one was much of the same. Three of Duke’s top four freshman had 16 or more points. Its lone senior had 16 of his own, and the Blue Devils won 81-54.
Since losing to N.C. State on Jan. 6, Duke (17-2, 5-2 ACC) has won four straight conference games. The Blue Devils also sit tied for third in the conference with North Carolina.
No. 5 Duke raced out to a 22-point halftime lead.
