Freshmen Trevor Keels and Paolo Banchero provided a chunk of the points, helping No. 9 Duke defeat No. 10 Kentucky 79–71 as legendary Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski began his final season Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden in New York.
Keels racked up 25 points on 10-for-18 shooting from the field and Banchero tallied 22 points by going 7-for-11 from the floor. Wendell Moore Jr. added 12 points as the Blue Devils overcame 1-for-13 shooting on 3-point attempts.
