Duke’s 30–6 Second-Half Run Buries North Carolina

Posted Mar 8, 2026
Over the next 13 minutes, No. 1 Duke scored 30 of the game's 36 points to bury No. 17 UNC as the Blue Devils closed out a 76-61 victory Saturday. Jarin Stevenson didn't realize the nature of Duke's run immediately after the game. He was in disbelief; "30-6? Dang," he said. It wasn't just one thing that went wrong for UNC during that 13:13 stretch. (TarHeel247)
