Duke began retiring Hall of Famer Mike Krzyzewski’s final NCAA tournament with minimal stress, beating Cal State Fullerton 78-61 on Friday night.
Freshman Paolo Banchero scored 17 points to lead the Blue Devils (29-6), who jumped to a double-digit lead in the first four and a half minutes and remained in control throughout. Duke led by 10 at halftime and pushed the margin to 20 midway through the second half.
