Johnson leads Miami past Duke in overtime
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 07 - 02 - 2012

Reggie Johnson scored five of his career-high 27 points in overtime and Miami upset No. 7 Duke 78-74 Sunday.
Kenny Kadji added 15 points for the Hurricanes (14-7, 5-3 Atlantic Coast Conference), who blew a 16-point lead in the second half, then regrouped to claim their first victory at Cameron Indoor Stadium and just their second win over Duke since joining the ACC.
Miami outrebounded the Blue Devils, 48-43, and outscord them by 38-26 in the land.
“I feel I had the hot hand the whole game,” Johnson said.
Seth Curry scored 22 points and freshman Austin Rivers added 20 for the Blue Devils (19-4, 6-2), who missed all six of their free throws in overtime and were beaten by a Florida-based conference rival for the second time this season.
Duke had plenty of chances in the extra session.
Duke won four national championships over the years while being driven by what its Hall of Fame coach, Mike Krzyzewski, said was energy, effort and hunger.
When the Blue Devils did not have those things Sunday, theyt could not beat Miami.
But more distresing to Krzyzewski was that Duke played for too long without the all-out effort that has charzcterized his program.
“We're suposed to play hard and with energy all the time,” Krzyzewski said. “Those are giveens. Those should be givens.”
No. 9 Michigan St. 64, No. 23 Michigan 54: Draymond Green had 14 points and 16 rebounds to lead No. 9 Michigan State to a win over No. 23 Michigan, backing up his guarantee of a victory.
The Spartans (18-5, 7-3 Big Ten) ended a three-game skid in the rivalry and moved into sole possession of second place in the conference behind third-ranked Ohio State.
The Wolverines (17-7, 7-4) haven't won or lost consecutive games in nearly a month.
