Duke Blue Devils (that rat faced scumbag)

Duke top scorers Kyle Filipowski, Jared McCain going pro​

Duke's top two scorers from last season, All-American Kyle Filipowski and ACC All-Freshman selection Jared McCain are entering the NBA draft.

"This has been a lifelong dream of mine, and I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to pursue it," Filipowski said in a statement posted on social media.



The sophomore led the Blue Devils in scoring and rebounding at 16.4 points and 8.3 rebounds per game. The 7-footer increased his draft stock this season, making a case to be a lottery pick.

McCain was second on the team at 14.3 points per game in his only season in Durham.

I haven't watched the NBA in probably decades by now......has it "evolved" to being a place where a douchey kid from Duke who's best attribute is "being tall" can thrive? I figured he'd be a 4 year goofus who exists mostly just to trip other players.

Re: But Duke scored just one field goal in the final 10:31 of the game and proceeded to blow a 59-45 lead. Houston then ended the game on a 9-0 run in the final 1:14 to secure a 70-67 win and finish off an all-time collapse by a Duke team that was hoping to win the program's sixth national title.

Cooper Flagg, Duke left devastated after dream season turns into nightmare with stunning Final Four collapse​

Eyes focused, face a picture of determination, Cooper Flagg held the ball on the wing and waited for the ideal moment to attack.

He had one chance to erase a one-point deficit, one chance to preserve Duke’s flickering title hopes, one chance to erase the memory of a stunning late-game collapse.

At first, Flagg drove left and got Houston’s J’Wan Roberts on his hip, but a help defender stepped into his path. Flagg then backed Roberts down, turned over his left shoulder and used his off hand to create some space. The short pull-up jumper that Flagg attempted is one that he has hit dozens of times this season. This time, he clanked it off the front rim, sending the Houston fans in the Alamodome into a state of red delirium and leaving his star-laden Duke team shattered and shell-shocked.

When asked to describe that sequence after Duke’s 70-67 Final Four loss, Flagg said that the Blue Devils executed the play head coach Jon Scheyer drew up.

“Took it into the paint, thought I got my feet set, rose up,” Flagg said. “Left it short obviously, but it’s a shot I’m willing to live with in that scenario.”
