The No. 16 Duke Blue Devils took care of business with a 106-69 win over the Queens Royals. Freshman sensation Jared McCain had another marvelous game, finishing with a game-high 24 points on 9-14 shooting, including 4-9 from three-point range to go along with 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals. Kyle Filipowski had little resistance patrolling the paint, scoring 19 points on 8-10 shooting to go along with 5 blocks and 2 steals in the win. Duke point guard Tyrese Proctor made his much-anticipated return from injury and scored 9 points while dishing out 4 assists in 18 minutes of play.
Basketball in the state of flux right now but I think this program has a chance to to really grow and flourish in that league and on this level late to the shot clock filipowski missed got it back McCain is open let the defender fly on by he’s going Top Gun for

For the Royals out of bounds and Duke Basketball picks it out m key their leading scorer unable to hit the jumper careless pass and they get it right back and Pard lays it In shot clock down to 10 for McCain individual effort 12 points McCain is already above his season average of 10.5 points per game and that’s poed on the interior m one handed over the defender after o was Zer for Queen shoot around and got spent some time here by myself

Eight-point game and queen surviving maybe that initial punch proor driving and scoring and it’ll go to the free throw line and the thing that uh you know for for a guy coming off of an injury to maybe do sophomore from Sydney Australia cannot complete the old school
Three-point play just a third Miss from the free throw line this season on 16 attempts filipowski recovered defensively and Proctor grabs it 63% shooting in this first half so far for the Blue Devils one of the better shooting teams in the ACC at 48% and it’s roach double header back in action after

From Ashby could be if there’s a if if there could be a problem for this team that’s where the issue could be the Lively now with the Dallas Mavericks good defense inside that’s young and Stewart D and the pressure on the perimeter driving to the basket hanging
And scoring and he’s you know 13 points for him and he you know but you’re going to give up something and I think that uh not not giving up the you know giving up the drive you’re going to live with some of that but it’s going to be five
Defenders around around the arc but a good take on the other end and another one at this end just about on a season average which is ninth best in the a sun this is Young One dribble too strong and a follow Stewart crashing the offensive glass for the
Blue Devils that’s the first field goal of the game for Stewart Pard into that corner and that’s a three all net from that corner they’re one of the stories of the league so far just one loss so far this season filipowski took it away McCain tight pass back to

DUKE ALWAYS PLAY EASY GAMES GO TARHEELZZZZ
i was there
Cw sports is soo ass. Wtf are these highlights. Filmed on a toaster?
Need to bench Mark Mitchell
Most complete game of the year, this is how Duke is supposed to look against a lesser opponent like Queen's. I really liked the 3 guard line up with Roach, McCain, & Proctor, I think we are going to see a lot of that, and have a lot of success with it. Go Duke!!!!
Deyton Albury was the best player on the floor.
