We could not have dreamed of a better poster for Mike Krzyzewski’s last at the Cameron Indoor Stadium since Duke receives North Carolina on Saturday evening. It’s the most famous rivalry in college basketball, so it’s the last time Coach K. will sit on a bench at home.
With a record of 26 wins for 4 losses, the Blue Devils already have their ticket for the NCAA tournament, and they will be seeded n°1 of the tournament of the ACC which will take place in New York next week. A first since 2006.
For the latter at home, after 42 years at the head of the team, Mike Krzyzewski will be entitled to a welcome as princely as it is moving from the public, but also from his former players. The university announces that a hundred players, passed by the university, will make the trip to the Durham campus this evening, and among them, there will be Grant Hill, JJ Redick, Elton Brand or even Christian Laettner, Carlos Boozer and Danny Ferry.
