Miami vs. Duke: Live Score, Highlights and Reaction

The Miami Hurricanes snapped No. 4 Duke’s home winning streak at 41 games on Tuesday night, walloping the Blue Devils 90-74 at Cameron Indoor Stadium in Durham, North Carolina.

The loss was Duke’s second straight in conference play, the first time since 2009 that it’s dropped back-to-back ACC contests.

Miami (12-4, 2-1 ACC) trailed by one at the break, but it’s trio of talented guards broke open the game in the second half.

The Hurricanes’ ability to drive the lane and get out in transition confounded the Duke defense, which struggled to keep up and limit scoring opportunities.

Kansas State-transfer Angel Rodriguez led Jim Larranaga’s team with 24 points to go along with five assists and five steals. Manu Lecomte added 23 of his own on 10-of-11 shooting from the free-throw line.

Duke (14-2, 2-2 ACC) came into Tuesday’s action hoping to rebound from an 87-75 road defeat at North Carolina State on Sunday night, but it ended up getting more of the same.

Defensive intensity was spotty at best, and the Blue Devils’ young players often appeared frustrated on the court.

Those type of growing pains are to be expected with a young team, even one this talented, and Coach K will have some job to do in order to right the ship.

The Blue Devils were led by Quinn Cook with 18 points.

Jahlil Okafor added 15 points and 15 boards in a performance that was more spotty than those numbers would seem to indicate.

Things aren’t getting any easier for the Blue Devils, who visit No. 6 Louisville on Saturday afternoon.

Miami will also be tested in its next game, hitting to road to face No. 16 Notre Dame in South Bend on Saturday.
