No. 9 Duke (men) rallies from 14 down to beat Louisville
December 9 - Cooper Flagg scored 20 points and grabbed 12 rebounds for No. 9 Duke, but the visiting Blue Devils did not need their freshman phenom in the game as they rallied to beat host Louisville 76-65 on Sunday.
Duke (7-2, 1-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) trailed by as much as 30-16 midway through the first half thanks to the Cardinals' making 10 of their first 14 shots, including seven of their first nine 3-pointers.
However, the shots would stop falling for the Cardinals (5-4, 0-1), who ended up shooting 37.3 percent overall.
Still, the hosts managed to hold on to the lead until Sion James' dunk with 9:27 left tied the game at 55. James then hit a pair of free throws 41 seconds later to give the Blue Devils a lead they would not surrender.
