Duke's Paolo Banchero made Mike Krzyzewski blush during his postgame interview and hoops fans loved it
I’m not sure if you’ve heard about this or not but this is going to be Mike Krzyzewski’s final season as head coach of the Duke Blue Devils. Shocking news, right?
Well, his final fun became even more special Saturday night when Duke beat Arkansas 78-69 to win the West bracket and advance to the Final Four next weekend in New Orleans.
Coach K has now gone to the Final Four in five different decades, which is just insane, and this will be the 13th time he’s made it to the Final Four.
Right after the game he was being interviewed by Tracy Wolfson when two of his best players – Paolo Banchero and Wendell Moore – jumped in and shared a special moment with their coach.
Banchero called Coach K the GOAT and Krzyzewski’s reaction was pretty great:
What a sweet moment.
