RALEIGH, N.C. — Trevor Lacey scored 21 points and North Carolina State shot 55 percent to beat No. 2 Duke 87-75 on Sunday, knocking off one of the last three unbeaten teams in the country.

The Wolfpack (12-5, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) ran constant double teams at preseason All-American Jahlil Okafor to slow Duke’s big man. N.C.
