The Duke lead widens

DUKE, 39-32

The GU coaching staff must have seen the same thing I did with Heytvelt. He begins the stretch of the game after the 16 minute media time out on the bench. He can't be tired. And he hasn't picked up another foul.

Instead Kuso and Pendergraft have stepped on the court, replacing Heytvelt and Mallon.

The energy is now there, but there is no way GU can win without Heytvelt playing with his own energy.

Of course, he comes back in and the first free throw he doesn't block out and Duke get the offensive rebound. As the 12 minute time out comes, he's still hasn't found the rhythm.
