The Virginia basketball team broke through against Duke at the John Paul Jones Arena on Saturday, winning 52-50 in front of a charged up crowd. The Cavaliers had lost three straight in the building to the Blue Devils, but pulled out another close game to get the win this time around.

UVA has won six straight and nine of its last 10 games. That run has secured a double bye in the ACC Tournament and put them in great position for a spot in the NCAA Tournament. The Double Bonus is back to look at the latest victory in this stretch.
