No. 8 UNC topped No. 2 Duke, 81–77, on a Saturday night in a matchup that electrified fans from start to finish. A huge call in the game’s closing moments, however, will likely be one of the most memorable moments of the night for Blue Devils fans.
Trailing 79-76 with 15 seconds to go, Blue Devils guard Trevor Keels secured a pass from forward Wendell Moore on the fastbreak, pump faked from the three-point line and drove towards the basket.
Just before Keels could begin his shooting motion, Tar Heels guard Puff Johnson slapped his arm to draw a foul, but the Duke guard finished the play with a lay-up.
