DULUTH, Ga. (AP) — Toby Fournier had 17 points, 10 rebounds and three blocks, Delaney Thomas added 14 points, and No. 13 Duke cruised past Clemson 60-46 in the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament quarterfinals on Friday.
The defense for top-seeded Duke (22-8) stunned Clemson (21-11) in the first half, forcing 11 turnovers and four shot-clock violations. The Blue Devils responded on offense, going 5 of 9 beyond the 3-point arc and 14 of 30 from the field against the same team that upset them 53-51 merely 12 days ago.
Duke went on a 10-0 run late in the second quarter to extend its lead to 38-19 at the half. Fournier had 12 points in the first half.
Clemson turned a 25-point deficit to 13 within the final minutes of the game, but Duke closed it out.
Mia Moore led the Tigers, the No. 9 seed, with 17 points. Demeara Hinds had a team-high eight rebounds.
