[Saba Sports News] With under two minutes left in Saturday’s East Region final at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., Duke held a commanding 78-63 lead over Alabama.
But despite the cushion, Scheyer was still fired up, seen getting on Flagg for leaving his feet and putting himself in a tough position that forced a risky pass.
It’s the kind of intensity Duke fans love to see. Even with the win nearly secured, Scheyer kept his foot on the gas, refusing to let his players coast.
The moment echoed the no-nonsense approach fans once saw regularly from Nick Saban at Alabama—where even a big lead didn’t excuse sloppy execution. Scheyer clearly expects the same discipline from his squad, no matter the scoreboard.
