Justise Winslow made his NBA debut last night. The former Duke star made a pretty good first impression, scoring five points, grabbing seven rebounds and throwing down this ridiculous left-handed dunk.

Prior to his first game with the Miami Heat, he received a good luck text message.

It was from Coach K.

The Duke basketball family is a very close one.
