DURHAM, N.C. (AP) -- Danny Green had 18 points and top-ranked North Carolina scored the final 10 points of its 76-68 victory over No. 5 Duke (No. 6 AP) on Saturday night to give the Tar Heels the Atlantic Coast Conference regular-season title.
Tyler Hansbrough finished with 16 points and 15 rebounds in his third straight victory at Cameron Indoor Stadium, and Wayne Ellington also scored 16 for the Tar Heels (29-2, 14-2).
North Carolina blew an early double-figure lead and briefly trailed before closing strong, holding the Blue Devils scoreless for the final 5 1/2 minutes to earn its eighth straight victory and the top seed in the ACC tournament in Charlotte -- and maybe the inside track for the No. 1 seed in the Charlotte-based East Regional.
