DURHAM, N.C. (AP) -- Kyle Singler scored 10 of his 17 points in the second half, and No. 6 Duke bounced back from its first loss by beating St. John's 80-71 on Saturday.

Nolan Smith added 16 points for the Blue Devils (7-1). They scored 17 straight points in the first half, then used a big run in the second to claim their NCAA-record 73rd straight nonconference victory at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

D.J. Kennedy scored 18 points to lead the Red Storm (6-1). The last non-ACC team to beat the Blue Devils there made things interesting late, reeling off 10 straight points to cut Duke's lead to 54-50 on Dwight Hardy's layup with about 10 minutes left.

Heartbreaker is pushing it. We played pretty well, and saw some great signs for the season. If Coker can play d like, we'll have a chance at March.

i don't think there are many posters who thought we'd be a guaranteed win at cameron.  losing a guaranteed game is a heartbreaker.  playing against a team loaded with mcdonald's aa's and two refs who root for the home team and losing on their home court is no heartbreaker.

i predict a huge win against georgia...our best of the year.
