Sky Is the Limit for Marvin Bagley III and Duke Following Rivalry Win over UNC

Marvin Bagley III led all players with 21 points and 15 rebounds, sparking a huge second-half run for the No. 5 Duke Blue Devils in a 74-64 comeback win over the No. 9 North Carolina Tar Heels on Saturday.

Early on, Duke could not buy a bucket. Through the first 25 minutes, the Blue Devils were an uncharacteristic 1-of-12 from three-point range and 4-of-14 from the free-throw line, trailing at Cameron Indoor Stadium on Grayson Allen's senior night, 42-29. With North Carolina starting to find the holes in the zone, it looked like Duke was destined to enter the ACC tournament on a two-game losing streak.
