The Tigers have dropped 19 consecutive games against teams ranked in the Top 5, and 36 of their last 37 such contests.

They have also lost nine straight at home to Duke, and had dropped 22 in a row overall in the series before a 78-74 victory in last season's ACC Tournament semifinals. Gerald Henderson led Duke in scoring for the sixth time in the last seven games on Sunday and is averaging 20.4 points during those games. Henderson has failed to score in double figures in three of his four career games versus Clemson

Duke's defense is limiting opponents to 54.6 points per game and 37.3 percent shooting in conference play.
