Four other players scored in double-figures for Mike Krzyzewski’s team, but it was Duke’s defense that set the tone. The ball pressure got in the way of the Bulldogs getting into their offense, and the result was a 33 percent shooting night. Then Duke got into transition by dominating the rebounding battle, 42-28, after all those misses.
