A Duke men’s basketball star is facing some criticism for what he tweeted following Sunday’s big second round NCAA Tournament win over Michigan State.
The Blue Devils topped the Spartans in what was arguably the game of the NCAA Tournament so far.
Following the win, Duke standout freshman Paolo Banchero tweeted that no one gave the Blue Devils, a No. 2 seed, a chance to make the second weekend.
“they said we weren’t making it out the first weekend…see y’all on the best coast,” he tweeted.
they said we weren’t making it out the first weekend…😂see y’all on the best coast 💙💙💙💙💙

There might have been some people predicting Michigan State (or Davidson) to upset Duke in the second round, but for the most part, everyone had the Blue Devils advancing to the Sweet 16.
Duke will take on Texas Tech in the Sweet 16 on Thursday or Friday night.
