Coffee is on me: Michael Carter-Williams treats 25 Bucks fans at Starbucks

Those fancy drinks at Starbucks can get mighty expensive. Thankfully for 25 students at Marquette University, former Syracuse star Michael Carter-Williams was there to help.

Carter-Williams rewarded some fans, and likely made some new ones on Thursday, reportedly buying coffee for 25 people at Starbucks and taking photos with plenty more, part of an effort he dubbed #MCWatMU.

One fan, who didn't recognize him, even claimed to make a purchase for the point guard to make up for her ignorance.

Syracuse basketball players have developed a reputation for doing nice things for the local community in recent years.
