The Duke Blue Devils opened up ACC play with an 87-68 victory over Clemson in Cameron Indoor Stadium.  Duke goes to 1-0 in league and 12-1 overall.

It was obvious early on that Duke had some rust to deal with after a 15-day break.   Duke struggled on offense early on but senior captain Jack White knocked down three, three-pointers to help.  White finished the game with 12 points and 6 rebounds.

The ACC's leading scorer R.J. Barrett added 13 points and 9 rebounds.  Tre Jones had a career-high 9 assists with 0 turnovers to go with his 10 points

Zion Williamson had the dunk of the year after a steal in the 2nd half.  Williamson was dominant, scoring 25 points to go with 10 rebounds and 2 blocked shots.

Duke had 13 steals in the game with just 13 turnovers, 6 by Cam Reddish.

The Blue Devils face their first road ACC contest this Tuesday when they travel to Winston Salem to take on Wake Forest.

Good Bolden tonight.  He was assertive inside.

Zion Williamson said tonight's reaction to his 360 dunk may have been the loudest of any flush in the past.
