 width=>>Duke Tops Elon

Jahlil Okafor erupted for 25 points and 20 rebounds as No. 2 Duke stayed unbeaten with a 75-62 win over Elon on Monday.

Okafor, considered by many as the nation's top freshman, shot 10-for-14 and posted career highs in both categories. He recorded the first 20-20 game by a freshman in Duke history and became the first Blue Devil to accomplish the feat since Elton Brand in 1998.

Amile Jefferson scored 13 points and Justise Winslow had 12 for Duke (9-0), which extended the nation's longest home winning streak to 38 games.

Luke Eddy paced Elon (5-5) with 16 points.

>>Gonzaga Crushes Texas Southern

Kyle Wiltjer scored 21 points to lead No. 8 Gonzaga in a 94-54 romp over Texas Southern.

Domantas Sabonis had 16 points and six rebounds, while Silas Melson gave 13 for the Bulldogs (10-1), who have won three straight.

Gonzaga owns a 32-game home winning streak, which is currently the second- longest streak in the country behind Duke's 38-game run.

Madarious Gibbs and Deverell Biggs each gave 12 points for the Tigers (1-8), who have lost their last three.
