Duke 71, Michigan State 61, (final): After opening the second half shooting 3-for-16 from the field, Michigan State was able to convert some easy baskets late courtesy of a backcourt turnover by Duke and a handful of transition opportunities.

Duke succeeded at slowing the game down late, utilizing excellent patience on the offensive end and maintaining its willingness to attack the basket and draw contact.
