The season is certainly not over, but from the games in Canada to the games in Charlotte this weekend, it’s been the greatest joyride for Duke fans since 1978 when the Duke Power Company ran all the way to the title game before losing to Kentucky.
That ride continued in the ACC Tournament with Zion Williamson leading the way. His performance was astonishing by any measure. As Jim Sumner tells us in his DBR game report, “Williamson’s final stat-line for the tournament was jaw-dropping. The tournament MVP ended with 81 points in three games. That breaks the ACC Tournament freshman scoring record of 75 points set by Phil Ford in 1975 and the Duke ACC Tournament scoring record of 80 set by Art Heyman in 1961.
