The No. 3 Gonzaga Bulldogs just beat the No. 1 Duke Blue Devils in a phenomenally played game by both teams to win the 2018 Maui Invitational.
For the first half of the game, the Gonzaga Bulldogs outplayed the Duke Blue Devils on all sides of the ball. The overall sentiment: Duke is young, and Gonzaga is showing them how its done.
In the second half of the game, fatigue caught up with Gonzaga. Duke’s athleticism went bonkers, and when the game crept closer and closer, the narrative switched right on back. Gonzaga is a good team, but no one can truly compete with Duke.
