CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — Saturday night produced a Duke-North Carolina game that lacked high-level play, but included the usual drama between the fierce rivals.
While neither team reached 40% shooting, Duke’s Kyle Filipowski’s 22 points and 13 rebounds propelled the Blue Devils to a 62-57 ACC basketball win over the Tar Heels at the Smith Center.
Filipowski twice gave Duke (23-8, 14-6 ACC) 1-point leads in the final four minutes by sinking a pair of free throws. His two free shots with 1:33 left put the Blue Devils up for good at 58-57.
