Tyus Jones scored 17 points and hit a clinching 3-pointer with about 10 seconds remaining Saturday night as No. 4 Duke ended No. 2 Virginia's 21-game home winning streak, 69-63.
Jones' 3-pointer was the fourth in the last four minutes for the Blue Devils (18-3, 5-3 Atlantic Coast Conference), who had missed 11 of 13 before hitting the long-range shots they needed.
Virginia (19-1, 7-1) started the second half with a 16-4 burst and led by 11 with under 11 minutes to play before some ill-advised shots, turnovers and Duke's shooting turned the tables.
Malcolm Brogdon led Virginia with 17 points and Justin Anderson had 11.
Quinn Cook, who scored 15, hit three 3-pointers in the last 4:38, including the one to give Duke the lead at 66-63 with 1:16 remaining. After Mike Tobey missed a free throw for Virginia, Tyus Jones hit the finisher with 9.9 seconds left, capping a game-ending 16-5 run for the Blue Devils.
Duke finished 28 for 55 (50.9 percent) and became the first team to shot above 50 percent against the Cavaliers this season.
