NC State (9-11, 2-11 ACC) played really well and gave Duke a big test and pushed them every minute to try and upset the Blue Devils in Cameron Indoor Stadium, but Duke found a way to prevail and get the 10-point victory and remain perfect in ACC play.
Dontrez Styles for NC State played a big time game scoring 18 points on 7-of-12 shooting from the field. Styles seemed to have an answer for Duke every minute of the game, but ended up fouling out of the game w and then the offense went cold.
