The challenge of playing in Cameron Indoor seems to be getting to Sparty. The Spartans are three of four from the three-point line and winning on the boards, but have turned the ball over nine times. Still, the refs aren’t contributing to Duke’s home court advantage: Duke’s Miles Plumlee has been in foul trouble, sitting with three so far.
