Moore knocked down a 3-pointer to boost the lead to 27-11 with 6:09 remaining.

The start of the second half was no different as Steward, Hurt and Moore each hit 3-pointers during an opening 11-0 salvo that increased the margin to 30.

Williams slammed home a dunk with 11:12 left and added two free throws 16 seconds later as Duke boosted the lead to 69-34 and cruised the rest of the way.
