DURHAM, N.C. (AP) - Jason Williams rebounded from a nasty first-half collision to score a season-high 22 points as No. 11 Duke won its seventh straight, dumping North Carolina A&T 101-60 Sunday.
All but two of Williams' points came in the second half as the Blue Devils (7-2) won their 40th straight home game. Duke also got a season-high 19 from fellow freshman Mike Dunleavy, while Chris Carrawell added 15 points, eight rebounds and six assists.
Tarrell Robinson led the Aggies (1-6) with 14 points.
Duke broke open a close game with a 17-0 run late in the first half to improve to 124-2 against non-conference teams in Cameron Indoor Stadium since 1983.
The Aggies trailed just 28-24 with 6:24 left in the first half, but were doomed by 16 first-half turnovers and 35 percent shooting.
Duke wasn't sharp in the opening 20 minutes after an eight-day layoff for exams, and coach Mike Krzyzewski let his team know it several times, openly yelling at them during a pair of 30-second timeouts.
The Blue Devils also had to overcome an eight-minute span without Williams. The team's point guard was sandwiched between two opposing players and had his neck bent back near midcourt early in the game. With Williams out for a stretch, Krzyzewski choose a lineup with no player shorter than 6-foot-6, and Duke's ballhandling and offensive execution suffered.
Duke's late first-half run coincided with the return of Williams as five different players scored during a spurt that gave the Blue Devils a 45-28 halftime lead.
Williams then heated up in the early part of the second half as Duke sank its first seven shots during a 14-0 run and the lead grew to 31 points.
Williams hit a 16-footer, a pair of free throws, two 3-pointers and a fastbreak layup in a span of 3 1/2 minutes to hit double figures for the ninth straight game.
