Player Notes:
Seth Curry
- Sophomore Seth Curry set season highs with four rebounds and four assists to go with his eight points. His previous highs were three rebounds against Princeton and Colgate and three assists against Colgate and Butler.
- Curry also logged a season-high 26 minutes off the bench.
- Sophomore Andre Dawkins earned his first career start against Bradley. The Chesapeake, Va. native had played in 46 career games off the bench prior to Wednesday's contest.
- Dawkins set a career high with 28 points. It was his second career 20-point game, matching his total of 20 against Radford a year ago. He reached double figures for the sixth time this season and 12th time in his career with 12 points.
- His 10 field goals were also a career best, three more than the seven he had against Radford last year.
- He made a career-high eight three-point field goals. The eight three-point field goals is tied for third most in a single game in Duke history with seven other players. The last player to make eight or more was Kyle Singler, who had eight against Georgia Tech last season. Dawkins' previous best was six treys against Radford last season. He now has three or more in five games on the year. He leads the team with 27 made three-point field goals.
- The 14 three-point attempts are tied for sixth most in a single game.
- Junior Miles Plumlee earned his second start of the year and first since the season opener. He now has 28 career starts to his credit.
- Plumlee scored 14 points for his first game this season with 10 or more. He has scored in double figures in eight career games.
- He shot a perfect 7-of-7 from the floor in the game. The seven made field goals match a career high as he also had seven against Charlotte last year.
- Senior Kyle Singler drew his team-leading 77th consecutive start and has now started in 119 of his 120 career games.
- Singler had 17 points to become the 16th player in school history with 1,900 career points. He now has 1,909 points in his career.

It is the fourth time it has happened under Coach K as Quin Snyder had 12 assists and was 0-for-2 against Southern Methodist in the second round of the NCAA Tournament in 1988 and Tommy Amaker finished with 10 assists while shooting 0-for-2 against Harvard in 1984.
