Fourth-ranked Duke began its season with a 76-60 victory over Green Bay, led by strong performances from Roberson and Nelson. The Blue Devils controlled the game from the start, using balanced scoring and solid defense to secure the season-opening win at home.
The Associated Press reported that Duke's depth and experience proved too much for the Phoenix, who struggled to keep pace with the ACC powerhouse. The win marks Duke's first step in what promises to be a competitive campaign.
