Charlotte, N.C. — After winning its first ACC Tournament game against Pittsburgh, the Syracuse Orange returned to action to square off with the Duke Blue Devils for the third time this season. The Orange trailed by as many as 17 in the first half, fought back to tie the game in the second but in the end Zion Williamson proved too much to handle as the Blue Devils moved past the Orange 84-72.
Williamson returned from hiatus for the first time since his blown shoe and sprained knee fiasco against North Carolina and it didn’t take long before he took the game by storm.
