Unlike when the two schools matched up on the football field, this game was a defensive struggle for the first half. Duke rebounded from their slow start by scoring 43 points in the second half to Clemson’s 30 and maintained their season margin of victory at 18 points. After the game, Coach K met with the media while Amile Jefferson and Quinn Cook, the star of the game, conducted...

It was the ugliest 28 point victory perhaps in the history of Duke basketball. How ugly was it? Duke’s halftime lead was 25-10 and their best player, Mason Plumlee scored only 8 points on the night. So naturally the Blue Devils fate fell on the shoulders of a player who shot 0-11 from the floor. Quinn Cook scored a career high 27 points and chipped in 5 assists to help No...

By Duke Of Hoops – Last night was a strange one in Cameron. From refs not knowing that a Clemson player was calling timeout when they were standing right next to each other, to a disjointed crowd that had spent all day getting Krzyzewskiville setup, to the score being 2-0 five minutes into the game, it was a weird night. Still, Duke held Clemson to just 10 points at halftime and...

Duke didn’t score a point for the first 5 minutes of the game last night, but more importantly held Clemson to just 10 points in the first half, the lowest total under Coach Mike Krzyzewski. While the Blue Devils only shot 29% from the field during this time, they came out on fire in the second half, making an astounding 72% of their shots until the end of the game. Quinn Cook...

By Josh Evans – Duke’s defense was superb, and it needed to be for Duke to beat Clemson, because their offense seemed to be a bit stagnant until they blew the game open in the second half. Maybe you could say Duke was looking ahead to their major road game against NC State on Saturday. Regardless, Duke won no matter if it seemed to be ugly or not. Duke’s defense held Clemson...

By Josh Evans – Ryan Kelly scored a season high 22 points as Duke improved to 14-0 and 1-0 in conference play. Seriously, Kelly was on fire, and would have scored more if he had not of been in foul trouble for part of the game. Kelly has a knack for playing well against Wake Forest, and he did not disappoint history by having a subpar game. Quinn Cook also had an interesting stat...

By Duke Of Hoops – It’s that time of year again, where Duke plays a game every two or three days until the end of the season. College football ended last night with Alabama’s beatdown of Notre Dame and Duke fans can only hope that the basketball season ends similarly, with the Blue Devils doing the beating down in Atlanta. The second game of the ACC season takes place tonight...

1. Clemson made 15-53 (28%) shots on the night. The two teams combined to miss their first 16 shots of the game. In all, Clemson shot 12% in the first half, and their eFG% for the game was 29.2%. The last time Clemson shot this poorly was on January 18, 2006, vs. Miami. In that game, Cliff Hammonds, Vernon Hamilton, and Shawan Robinson combined to make 4-28 shots.
2. Three days...
