Paolo Banchero ‘haunted’ by Final Four loss to UNC, will ‘never get over it’


When you lose your final college game that also ends the career of a legendary coach, it’s going to be hard to get over. Former Duke star made that clear in an interview ahead of Thursday’s NBA draft. "I don’t think I’ll ever fully get over it. The first month I told myself: ‘Just stop. Stop dwelling on it.’ To say ‘get over it’; I’ll never get over it." (Tar Heel Tribune)
