Austin Rivers shares his perspective on what it was like to play for Coach K at Duke.
“He was incredible. Good mentor. He was good with X’s and O’s. He wasn’t the greatest X and O’s coach I’ve ever been a part of. He was probably one of the greatest motivators I’ve ever been around in my life. The way he could push you to like, want to die for him. He was very willful. I mean, just very powerful. His words, and the way he went about it, and the way he moved, and the way he talked, he was a very powerful man. This is why he’s Coach K. That’s why he got the USA job. He’s the only guy they felt could control these personalities. They put him in a room with LeBron and Kobe and Carmelo. They gave it to him. The Redeem Team was for a reason. That guy walks in a room and they all look, just commands his respect.”

@samesfandiari Pathetic? I was responding to him dumb dumb. Lol he brought up high school 🤦♂️. Some of you need a little help I see. Stop ur glaze and get with some voice of reason. Who r u btw? Never mind. Have a good day.
“You talkin about I was one of the featured guys (at Duke)… no, I was the guy. I led my team in scoring, was 1st team All-ACC, and freshman player of the year. STOP.”

I like J will. Respect his humility and contribution to the team as a rotation big with 3 ability! Joker whoopin np though, You can see it in the eyes papi..
Thank God @NBCSports is back in the @NBA . Best all star game in recent memory! That’s how you do it!! Started with the Rising Stars, ended with the big dawgs! Big time 🔥
This version of P5. Banchero playing quicker hooping through magic flow better and better. He’s dominating as the team wins. superstar in making. Tonight watching I realized this team has to do nothing. Just get healthy and progress. Timing could reward this team for staying patient and developing within. Was worried for a little bit…but they on their way 🫡
Parents and kids!!! Please commit to schools where your actually wanted and where you will be pushed to be better. Not where the most NIL is or where the biggest and most prestigious school is!! You will make it harder on yourselves in the long run!! If u like that and stay the journey you will be found!!!
