In front of a sea of blue and white, No. 10 Baylor men’s basketball took the court in the Big Apple for a neutral-site contest against No. 21 Duke, but the squad came up short with a final score of 78-70. Despite a strong outing by freshman center Yves Missi, the Bears left Madison Square Garden empty-handed on Wednesday night.

Head coach Scott Drew saw points from eight of the 10 rotation players who touched the court, with four finishing in double figures. However, Baylor (9-2) also racked up 14 turnovers and 20 fouls, allowing the Blue Devils to secure the victory.
