No. 6 Duke bounces back with 86-35 rout of Wofford

Duke Blue Devils

Tyrese Proctor scored 15 points as No. 6 Duke rolled to an 86-35 home victory over visiting Wofford on Saturday afternoon in Durham, N.C.

Freshman phenom Cooper Flagg did not score in double figures for the first time this season but finished with a stat-stuffing effort of eight points, nine rebounds, six assists, three steals and two blocks in 28 minutes for the Blue Devils (3-1).

Isaiah Evans scored 14 points, Caleb Foster added 13 and Khaman Maluach had 11 as Duke bounced back from a 77-72 loss against Kentucky on Tuesday at Atlanta

Kyler Filewich paced Wofford (1-3) with 12 points, nine rebounds and four assists, while Corey Tripp also chipped in 12 points. Wofford had 19 turnovers to 10 for Duke.

The Terriers led briefly after the opening tip on a layup from Filewich, but then Duke broke off a 19-3 run and never looked back. That run started with three consecutive 3-pointers, including two from Proctor.

Duke scored 17 points off Wofford’s turnovers and led 64-17 with 15:15 remaining in the game. The Terriers scored just 14 points in the first half on 6-of-30 shooting (20.0 percent).

Duke had 24 assists on 30 made baskets and knocked down 16-of-38 shots from 3-point range, a 42.1 percent clip. Proctor and Evans each went 4 of 7 from 3-point range, while Foster made three 3-pointers on four attempts.

Wofford shot just 24.6 percent in the game and 15.2 percent from deep.

For the Blue Devils, 13 different players saw the floor.

Maluach played just 13 minutes because of an apparent injury to his right foot. In his place at center, fellow freshman Patrick Ngongba made his Duke debut, finishing with six rebounds, two points and two assists in 11 minutes.
