Duke looks to win its second straight game in the ACC Tournament when the No. 10 seed Blue Devils face No. 7 seed Louisville. The Cardinals beat Duke in both regular season matchups, winning 70-65.

DURHAM, N.C. -- — Carlik Jones scored seven of his 25 points in overtime, sophomore Quinn Slazinski opened the scoring in OT with a 3-pointer and Louisville fended off Duke 80-73 on Saturday night, halting the Blue Devils' late-season win streak at four games.

Jones, a graduate transfer from Radford, scored 24 points when Louisville defeated Duke 70-65 on Jan. 23 — marking this the first regular-season sweep for the Cardinals against the Blue Devils.

Jae'Lyn Withers scored 16 points with nine rebounds for Louisville while Samuell Williamson scored 14 with 12 rebounds.

Matthew Hurt led the Blue Devils with a career-high 37 points — tying the most points by a Duke player in the last 15 seasons (Grayson Allen 2017).

Wendell Moore Jr., who scored 13 points, made four straight free throws in the final 1:20 of regulation to give Duke a 65-64 lead with 36.9 seconds left. Jones was fouled on a drive in the lane at 13.5, and made 1 of 2 free throws to tie it before Withers secured the offensive rebound. Jones had another attempt to win it, but his pull-up jumper was off the mark.

The Cardinals (13-5, 8-4 Atlantic Coast Conference) never trailed in overtime.

After Louisville took a 40-28 lead early in the second half, Hurt scored 13 points in a nearly seven minute span as Duke grabbed a 53-52 lead. Williamson wrapped back-to-back layups — each on an assist from Jones — around a Hurt basket as the Cardinals led 58-57.

Duke (11-9, 9-7) still leads the overall series with Louisville, 10-9, but the Cardinals have won three straight. Hurt has been on a late-season tear, entering Saturday's game averaging 20.8 points during Duke's four-game win streak.

Louisville is at Virginia Tech on Wednesday and closes the regular season Saturday hosting No. 15 Virginia. Duke closes out the regular season with a visit to Georgia Tech on Tuesday and hosting rival North Carolina on Saturday.

After a bye in the first round of the ACC Tournament, Louisville men's basketball team will make their 2021 ACC Tournament debut against Duke at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday night.

Duke (12-11, 9-9 ACC) blew past Boston College 86-51 in the first round to set up its third meeting this season with the Cardinals (13-6, 8-5). The winner of tonight's matchup goes on to face No. 2 seed Florida State in the quarterfinals Thursday.

Cardinals beat writer Shannon Russell said redshirt freshman Jae'Lyn Withers pointed to 'staying locked in' and 'staying together' in the midst of adversity as key factors to making a run in the conference tournament, like the times opponents have taken control for long stretches. More than once this season, the Cardinals have proven vulnerable in first halves, most recently against a Virginia team that held them to 21 points by halftime. U of L's 37 points after intermission weren't enough.
