Durham, N.C. — After falling at home to Georgia Tech on Saturday, the Syracuse Orange headed south to take on the No. 1 team in the country, the Duke Blue Devils. The Orange struggled out of the gate, but came back and knocked off the Blue Devils 95-91.
Syracuse got off to a nightmare start as Duke rushed out to a 12-0 lead in Cameron Indoor without Cam Reddish, who was under the weather. Both point guards in orange struggled to get the ball over the timeline early with Tre Jones picking up full court — he pressured both Frank Howard and Jalen Carey and was able to force some early turnovers.
