Arizona Wildcats Basketball
Caleb Love banked in a three-pointer at the buzzer to end the first half and calmly sank four of the final six free throws down the stretch in the second half as Arizona edged Duke 78-73 tonight inside the Cameron Indoor Stadium in Durham, North Carolina.
But it wasn't just Love. All five starters hit double figures for Arizona, which improved to 2-0 on the young season, while the 2nd-ranked Blue Devils dropped to 1-1.
Keshad Johnson scored 14 points and grabbed eight rebounds, Oumar Ballo netted 13, while Kaylan Boswell added 12 points, five assists, and eight rebounds to go along with an impressive performance from Pelle Larsson, who scored 12 points in the game- including a couple of pressure-free throws of his own down the stretch to close out the win.
Love, who played last season with North Carolina, returned to familiar territory and fought off the pressure of being back home, so to speak, where he had battled against the Blue Devils at the Cameron arena as a star player on the Tar Heels. He finished with 11 points, three rebounds, three assists and two steals.
Way to go, Wildcats!
