The North Carolina Tar Heels and Duke Blue Devils will meet for the third time this season and the second time in six days. And this time, the meeting will feature Zion Williamson.
UNC took care of business against Louisville in the first game of Thursday’s night session, beating the Cardinals 83-70 to clinch their spot in the semifinals. Hours later it was Duke that punched their ticket to the semis by beating Syracuse thanks to a late second-half surge.
Now the two teams will meet for a third time this season and the stakes are as high as ever.
