Pick your poison in Lawrence Joel Coliseum in Winston-Salem, North Carolina as Wake Forest Demon Deacons Hoops and lead man Danny Manning knew what was coming and like everyone else could not stop it.

The Duke Blue Devils just keep coming and coming and with all that versatility it doesn't matter what you throw at them the Devils keep their dawgs on the gas pedals. Behind a career-high 30 points from Zion Williamson and ten boards with R.J. Barrett adding 21 points and waiting on even Blue Devil Tables Duke rolls to a 87-65 convincing victory over a Wake Team that had a more than solid game plan as it comes down to can you match up with Duke first four players and to a man no one but Gonzaga has showed me they can.

Duke despite the "Deacs" 2-3 extended zone slowing them down in the half court shoots 58% from the field but only 30% from deep (7-23) and 50% from the stripe (8-16) and in closer games that arc and free throw line digits will be magnified.

Wake forward Jaylen Hoard led the "Deacs" with 13 and Brandon Childress chips in with a dozen as Wake just does not have enough firepower to play with Duke. "Bloodline" Sharone Wright Jr. (Dad was a McDonald's All-American and played at Clemson) came off the "Deacs" Bench with a dozen.

Duke now 13-1 overall moves to 2-0 in ACC Play as they beat Clemson this past weekend. Wake falls to 7-7 overall and 0-2 in ACC Play...

Note: Tre' Jones Duke PG is the one to watch as the cat is out the bag he goes Duke goes its that clear...
