Duke Basketball: Jayson Tatum’s half court heave wins Skills Challenge

On a night where many former Duke Basketball players flocked to Durham to see the Duke Blue Devils take down the North Carolina State Wolfpack, Jayson Tatum had to stay in Charlotte to compete in the Skills Competition.

It was worth it for Tatum as he was able to win the NBA Skills Competition over Trae Young in the Championship Round.

Tatum had to defeat Mike Conley of the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round of the Skills Challenge and then had to face Nikola Jokic in the semi-finals before facing Young in the Championship Round.
