    A big rebound and two made free throws at the end sealed the deal for Duke and earned Amile Jefferson my MOTM vote. Great stat line:

    16 points, 7 rebounds, 5 blocks, 2 assists

    Runner-up: Luke Kennard with a team leading 23 points.

    Honorable Mention: Jayson Tatum with 19 points and 7 rebounds.

    Also voted for Amile. Steady play from the captain.

    What Bob said.

    Of course the real player of the game was Collins. Almost unstoppable, not that we seemed to try very hard . . .

    Frank stuck his finger in the leak and woke everybody up. The blow by finger roll was balletic.
    Nothing incites bodily violence quicker than a Duke fan turning in your direction and saying 'scoreboard.'

    It was a good play, as well. 😛😎

    Went with Frank. Nice in control offense and his defense was respectable. Was tempted to pick Amile especially after that last board in traffic and going 2-2 from the line but Collins going for 31 and 15 was too much to overlook.

    I went with Amile for his work on offense and defense. Those 5 blocked shots were big as were his 2 FTs at the end. Good job Captain Amile. GoDuke!
    I really liked Frank's work as well. He was 2nd on my list, then Jayson for his hard work on defense and offense. He got some pretty bad calls against him today. GoDuke

    I voted Luke because Collins had 31. Amile should not be letting that happen!

    I went back to see if my eyes were betraying me because I thought Luke played a very poor first half on defense. I was correct and my eyes were just fine. Luke is going to have to pick up his defense if he wants to be a lottery pick. GoDuke!

    Amile was not guarding Collins for the most part. With the switches, it was usually Frank or Grayson. GoDuke!

    6 players in double figures. Loved Frank off the bench.. Matt played well & I really wish his 3 would have stayed down that might have sealed the deal..But Amile gets my vote. But I certainly would not find fault with other choices.

    7 straight.. WOW!

    GMTA, Bob. Exactly what I said walking back the the car after the game! Amile got my vote tonight.
