Duke basketball defeated North Carolina on Saturday. Blue Devils coach Jon Scheyer is revealing the short but interesting message he gave his team at halftime. Duke nearly blew a double-digit lead to go into the break up by just one point.

Duke men’s basketball team achieved a notable 82-69 victory over the University of North Carolina at the Dean E. Smith Center. Postgame, head coach Jon Scheyer emphasized the team’s resilience and strategic execution.

He built Duke’s roster, fostered camaraderie, and helped the Blue Devils navigate a string of injuries. Jon Scheyer’s team is rolling — and eyeing multiple championships.

There recently has been coaches who have taken over iconic programs and found early success, such as Kevin Ollie replacing UCONN’s Jim Calhoun and Hubert Davis stepping in at North Carolina for Roy Williams. None, though, were able to do what Scheyer has done in terms of winning and recruiting.
