Health Scares Interrupt Duke's Victory Over NC State

Duke's win featured a player vomiting on the court and a student fainting in the stands, both leading to game stoppages.

Duke defeated NC State 74-64, extending their winning streak to 14 games and improving to 18-2 overall this season.
Freshman center Khaman Maluach vomited on the court during the second half due to cramping and overhydration but was reported to be okay afterward.
The game was paused for five minutes as staff cleaned the court following Maluach's incident, and he did not return to play for the remainder of the game.
Shortly after, a Duke student in the Cameron Crazies section fainted due to overheating but recovered and was able to walk out of the arena on her own after receiving treatment.
Freshman Cooper Flagg led the Blue Devils with 28 points, while teammate Kon Knueppel added 19 in a hard-fought comeback victory.
