Duke keeps escaping with wins as opponents choke in the final seconds, and the Blue Devils are due to break out with an easier win. Zion Williamson scored 23 points, RJ Barrett added 18 points and 11 assists, and Tre Jones finished with 22 points and eight assists against Virginia Tech. Michigan State has lost seven straight times to Duke as coach Tom Izzo can't seem to figure out a way to defeat Mike Krzyzewski, who continues to live under a lucky star. The Spartans destroyed LSU, 80-63, as Aaron Henry scored a team-leading 20 points and Kenny Goins grabbed 11 rebounds. The Tigers were held to 39.3 percent shooting as Michigan State won its eighth in a row. However, the Blue Devils are one of the few teams that compare favorably to the Spartans on the boards and will get the win and cover in this matchup. Duke is 10-2 ATS its last 12 games versus the Big 10. Take DuKe.
