In a commanding performance, the Duke Blue Devils secured a spot in the Sweet 16 by defeating James Madison 93-55 in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Jared McCain was the standout player of the game, scoring a remarkable 30 points, including a Duke record of eight 3-pointers in a tournament game.
The Blue Devils, seeded fourth, showcased their dominance early on, taking a 22-point lead into halftime and never allowing James Madison to close the gap significantly in the second half. Despite James Madison's strong defensive efforts in their previous games, Duke's offensive prowess proved too much to handle.
