On a night when NBA scouts flocked to Allstate Arena to watch a potential top-five draft pick in Providence guard Kris Dunn, the DePaul men’s basketball team stole the show.
Led by a career-night from senior forward Myke Henry, the Blue Demons upset the No. 11 Providence Friars by a score of 77-70, securing the program’s biggest win in recent memory.
“We played hard,” Henry said. “We played together. We hit a little adversity, but we stuck through it and got the win.”
But despite the shocking nature of DePaul’s victory, Providence coach Ed Cooley is adamant that there was no upset on Tuesday night.
