March Madness is about the heart, the dreams, and the heroes. It’s about the upsets the resilience, the heartbreak. March Madness is where players leave it all on the court, and whatever happens, happens.
Duke vs. UCF had it all.
Heading into the game, there were already a million storylines. Duke, ripe with two superstar freshmans in Zion Williamson and R.J. Barrett, the Blue Devils were already one of the most exciting teams in the tournament. On top of that, UCF 7-fot-6 centre Tacko Fall added to the pre-game drama by stating that there is no way Zion dunks on him.
Well, it wasn’t a dunk, but he was part of a pretty big finish in which Zion certainly got the better of the exchange.
Certainly one of the best finishes of the tournament so far, Duke narrowly escaped the huge upset.
MADNESS!
