The Jon Scheyer era at Duke could not be off to a better start as the Blue Devils won their first men's ACC tournament title since 2019 on Saturday night against the Virginia Cavaliers.
It was an ugly, low-scoring affair as four-seeded Duke took home the crown with a 59-49 win. It was just 24-17 at halftime.
Part of the reason that game was so lackluster offensively was because of the great defensive display put on by the Blue Devils, who forced 12 turnovers and held the Cavaliers to just 33.3 percent shooting from the field and 23.
