Things are not going well for the Duke men’s basketball team right now. They’re 5-5 and dropped their third straight game on Saturday night with a 70-65 loss to Louisville. You’d expect coach Mike Krzyzewski, one of the most respected coaches in the game, to give well-practiced answers to questions during his postgame news conference.

Chase Claypool picked up the TikTok torch of disrespecting opponents in a live stream with his followers. Except unlike Smith-Schuster’s ritual pregame social media dances, Claypool’s… Source link
