No. 11 Duke 83, Wake Forest 63: Jabari Parker finished with 21 points and eight rebounds as the host Blue Devils continued their dominance over the Demon Deacons.

Rasheed Sulaimon scored 19 points for Duke (18-5, 7-3 ACC), which bounced back from Saturday’s two-point overtime loss at Syracuse with its 29th consecutive home victory and 15th straight win at Cameron Indoor Stadium against Wake Forest. Andre Dawkins went 4-of-7 beyond the arc and scored 17 points as the Blue Devils went 12-of-26 from long range.

Devin Thomas led the way with 14 points for the Demon Deacons (14-9, 4-6), who have dropped eight in a row in this series. Arnaud William Adala Moto logged the second double-double of his season and career with 10 points and 10 rebounds while Miles Overton contributed 12 points off the bench.

Thomas scored his team’s first seven points and Overton added eight points over a 2:06 stretch to give Wake Forest a 21-16 edge. The Demon Deacons retook the lead with 7:43 left after a quick spurt from Duke, but the Blue Devils held Wake Forest without a field goal for the next 7½ minutes and unleashed a 20-4 run to build a 15-point advantage near the end of the first half.

Adala Moto’s three-point play brought the Demon Deacons within 46-36 early in the second half, but Duke limited Wake Forest to one field goal over the next 6½ minutes and began to pull away following a pair of dunks from Parker during a 22-8 burst. The Blue Devils, who forced 19 turnovers, did not allow the lead to dip below 17 points the rest of the way.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Duke improved to 163-77 all-time against Wake Forest. … Demon Deacons leading scorer Codi Miller-McIntyre sat out Tuesday after suffering an ankle injury at the end of the first half of Saturday’s loss to Georgia Tech. … Dawkins is 14-of-23 beyond the arc over his last three games.
