When the halftime buzzer sounded in Cameron Indoor Stadium on Saturday afternoon, the Delaware Fightin’ Blue Hens had made seven shots from the field. So had Ryan Kelly. Mason Plumlee had 15 points. Delaware had 19. If the 23-point margin after the game’s first 20 minutes wasn’t enough of an indication as to how this game was going to end up, senior walk on Todd Zafirovski’s layup with 1:24 left in the game should have driven the point home. It was the senior’s first made field goal in three years and was one of any number of things that went right for the country’s 2nd-ranked team.
Relive one of the more feel good victories for a Duke team I can remember in a while through the highlights below.

By Josh Evans – After a brutal 7 game stretch in which #2 Duke played 3 top 5 teams, Duke needed a much needed rest. They needed a rest so bad that Curry sat out. Now granted, he was still recovering from an ankle injury, but if Duke really needed him, he probably could have played. Instead Duke sat him, and hoped for an easy win against Delaware, something that Duke has not achieved...

Alex Murphy had a career high in just about all categories Saturday against the Delaware Blue Hens, but is this a cracking of the egg for the redshirt freshman, or a just a game against a less talented team where he rose to the occasion?
Alex Murphy saw the most game action for him this season and took advantage scoring 10 points and grabbing 7 rebounds.
Bottom line, either...
