North Carolina took control of the game in the second half, and survived a furious run by Duke to leave Durham victorious, 83-76. J.J. Redick had an awful night shooting the ball. After hitting his first three shots, he finished 5 of 21 from the field.
Despite losing his top seven scorers from the National Championship team a year ago, Roy Williams has North Carolina peaking at the right time. Duke on the other hand has lost its last two games and heads into the ACC tournament on a down note. Hopefully, the two teams will face each other in the finals next Sunday for the rubber match (Duke won the first meeting in Chapel Hill).
