Behind 24 points from Flagg, 15 from Knueppel, and 11 from Gillis, Scheyer's third batch of Blue Devils extended its winning streak to 13 and remained undefeated in ACC play, improving to 17-2 overall and 9-0 against the conference.

No. 2 Duke took a different route to its latest Atlantic Coast Conference win. The Blue Devils pushed through their worst offensive day of the season to hang on down the stretch and beat Wake Forest 63-56 on Saturday.

Remember that the Deacons went through an ugly stretch in non-conference play, being held below 60 points in three straight games. Wake Forest struggles on the offensive glass and shoots just 28.1% from long range—easily the worst number among high-major schools.
