DURHAM, N.C. (AP) Tyler Roberson had 14 points and a career-high 20 rebounds, and Syracuse beat No. 20 Duke 64-62 on Monday night, the Blue Devils' third straight loss.

Trevor Cooney, Malachi Richardson and Duke transfer Michael Gbinije all scored 14 points for Syracuse (13-7, 3-4 Atlantic Coast Conference), which improved to 3-1 since Hall of Fame coach Jim Boeheim returned from his nine-game suspension.

Marshall Plumlee had 19 points and 17 rebounds to lead Duke (14-5, 3-3), which has its longest losing streak since the 2006-07 team dropped its final four games.

Grayson Allen finished with 18 points and Brandon Ingram added 13 points and 11 boards for Duke. Freshman Luke Kennard, who scored a season-best 30 two days earlier against Notre Dame, failed to score and was 0 for 9, missing all seven of his 3-point attempts.
