Boston Celtics star Tatum told the story of Duke’s history.

“Champions move different,” Tatum said. “At the biggest stage of the game, we live for the lights.”

Jon Scheyer's team is having a phenomenal season and is two games away from winning the 2025 NCAA championship.

Duke registered a 35-3 record this season and secured the ACC regular season and conference tournament titles.

However, they have failed to win the NCAA Tournament since 2015.

Saturday’s game is Duke’s first Final Four game since its loss to North Carolina in 2022, a defeat that signaled the end of coach Mike Krzyzewski’s legendary career.

The Blue Devils are on a 15-game winning streak. However, they face a Cougars side that is 34-3 and has won its last 17 games.

The game is set to tip off at 8:49 p.m. ET, with the winner advancing to face Auburn or Florida in the national championship game.

Duke coach Jon Scheyer was named the 2025 John McLendon National Coach of the Year on Thursday. The same day, freshman superstar Cooper Flagg was named the AP Player of the Year.

The Blue Devils will hope for more awards, but winning the 2025 NCAA title is ultimately the goal.
