VIDEO: Jason Witten, Cowboys go hard in the paint at Cameron Indoor Stadium
Members of the Dallas Cowboys engaged in a basketball scrimmage at Duke's fabled Cameron Indoor Stadium on Wednesday.
DeMarco Murray and Jason Witten squared off against Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett and Tony Romo in a 2-on-2 scrimmage.
Witten showed that he could be a pretty decent power forward in another life, beating Garrett off the dribble.

Romo spoke highly of Mike Krzyzewski after his group's visit.
"Just trying to come out here and learn from Coach K," Romo said to Duke guard Quinn Cook. "Really, any time you can get some insight from someone who is that outstanding and that level of success, that’s outstanding. You guys get it every day, but for us just to come in, it’s been really helpful."

Success begets further success, and the Cowboys may have come away with some lessons learned from Krzyzewski and the third-ranked Blue Devils.
