Before 9,314 fans at Cameron Indoor Stadium in Durham, N.C., Duke beat VUU 106-64 in Tuesday night’s exhibition.Peterson did his part, scoring 14 points — including two 3-pointers — and snaring five rebounds in 23 minutes of floor time.

Jordan White added 13 points for VUU and Jemal Smith passed for eight assists.

Freshman sensation Zion Williamson had 29 points for the Blue Devils, hitting 11 of 13 shots from the floor.

VUU will open its regular season Nov. 10 at Shippensburg University in Pennsylvania.
