Utah upsets No. 7 Duke 77-75 in overtime in New York
- 8 years ago
Utah coach Larry Krystkowiak says the Utes weren't fixated on avenging the Elite Eight loss to Duke in March.
That doesn't mean the Utes aren't savoring the 77-75 upset of No. 7 Duke at Madison Square Garden on Saturday.
Kyle Kuzma scored 21 points to lead Utah and Jakob Poeltl had 19 points and 14 rebounds before fouling out with 31 seconds left in OT.
"It's a very emotional win," said Poeltl, who finished 8 of 11 from the field.
"It's just a great feeling."
Duke's Luke Kennard led all scorers with 24 points.
But the Blue Devils lost for the second time this season, falling to 9-2.
