The Blue Devils, who had been off since winning Dec. 6 at then-No. 7 Michigan State, prevailed despite committing 22 turnovers.

Scheyer, a former Duke player in his fourth season following retired Hall of Fame coach Mike Krzyzewski, is 100-22. He has reached 100 victories faster than any Atlantic Coast Conference coach in history.

Duke, which had more turnovers (15) in the first 16 minutes than in any entire game this season, led 48-45 at halftime.

Duke led 10-0 before Lipscomb attempted its second shot of the game. The Bisons scored the next 10 points and then led 14-12 and 26-16, which resulted in a Blue Devils timeout with 10:39 left in the half. Lipscomb was 13 for 14 on first-half free throws.
