Final Thoughts:
It was streaky game, but Duke took over in the 2nd Half, thanks to Tre Jones and Cassius Stanley. Omer Yurtseven kept the Hoyas in the game, but the Blue Devils were too good in this year's edition of 2K Empire Classic. 

The Blue Devils will host Stephen F. Austin on Tuesday Night. While the Hoyas will host UNC Greensboro, Next Saturday.
