SHOCKING END TO DUKE’S STREAK

-

Nathan Bain raced down the court to score the winning layup at the buzzer as Stephen F. Austin, a mid-sized Texas university, stunned top-ranked Duke 85-83 in overtime Tuesday night in Durham, N.C. Bain’s basket came off Duke’s fifth turnover in the extra session and ended the Blue Devils’ 150-game home-court winning streak in non-conference games. The Blue Devils (6-1) scored only two points in overtime. Stephen F. Austin (5-1) was led by Kevon Harris’ 26 points. Cameron Johnson added 16 points. Vernon Carey Jr. posted 20 points for Duke with Tre Jones notching 17 and Matthew Hurt and Cassius Stanley, left, each supplying 15. The last time Duke lost at home to a non-conference opponent was in 2000, when St. John’s won 83-82. ESPN reported it was the biggest upset in the NCAA in 15 seasons.
