Caleb Foster had knee surgery 19 days ago. He didn't just come back tonight; he was the key for Duke.

Oh man, now I'm going to cry.

Caleb Foster was the first player to commit to Jon Scheyer when Scheyer took over. Tonight the junior willed Duke back from double figures against a tough opponent to earn an Elite 8 bid. He did it less than 3 weeks after breaking his foot.

Foster is your player of the game. I will hear no arguments to the contrary.

Amen

I would prefer we not do this again.

Imagine a world where he didn't play. Cayden with 2 fouls with 5 minutes to go in the first half. Duke down 9 in the second half. Just essential.

If we are being candid, Duke closed the game because of extraordinary individual offense by Evans and Boozer after the under-4 timeout. Evans' stupid fader contested three at 4:00 swish. Boozer iso and-1 at 3:00, buckets.

I just don't think Alabama knows how to play defense.

To keep advancing, Duke needs Ngongba to get back in rhythm.

#GoDuke 👍🏻

Wait, Tom Izzo is a "good" coach?

Imagine posting stats showing a team shot 32!!! threes to argue that they didn't shoot enough free throws. Florida fans still adjusting to the transition from football school.

Tarris Reed Jr. is the key to Duke making the Final Four

Duke basketball doesn't know how to do boring. My lord Ashlon.

The presence of mind to do a pass fake with 2 seconds left. lol

Michigan is a really good team and might win it all, but super weird dynamic where even Michigan fans don't really have warm and fuzzy feelings about their All-American because he is suck dick.

NEW The Athletic: Three weeks ago, Caleb Foster was sobbing uncontrollably, with a freshly-broken foot, afraid his junior year was over. Friday night, he saved Duke's season. "Miracles happen in March, and I think we just witnessed the first one for us." nytimes.com/athletic/71534…

Now the big question--can Foster go again tomorrow?

Brian is awesome and you should read this. However, my post would just be: (1) They ran out a zone, resulting in some bad shots and missed open threes by SJU; (2) Spammed high PNR for like 5 minutes.
