North Carolina spoiled the emotional home finale of retiring Hall of Fame Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski at Cameron Indoor Stadium, beating the fourth-ranked Blue Devils 94-81 on Saturday night.
DURHAM, N.C. — Nearly 100 former players, including Duke legends Grant Hill, Jason Williams, Shane Battier and Christian Laettner lined the court at Cameron Indoor Stadium to welcome coach Mike Krzyzewski for the final time Saturday, as the Blue Devils wrapped their regular season — and the legendary coach's career on his home court — against rival North Carolina.
The Duke Blue Devils' final home men's basketball game of the regular season Saturday is the last time head coach Mike Krzyzewski will roam the sidelines of Cameron Indoor Stadium. Fittingly, his send-off comes against Duke's rival: the North Carolina Tar Heels (6 p.m. ET on ESPN).

Hall of Fame broadcaster Dick Vitale began calling Duke Blue Devils men's basketball games for ESPN during the 1980-81 college basketball season, and has been on the call for dozens of Duke telecasts over the ensuing 42 years. Vitale has also enjoyed a close personal friendship with Blue Devils coach Mike Krzyzewski, who will retire at the conclusion of the 2021-22 season. On the occasion of Coach K's final home game at Cameron Indoor Stadium, Vitale wrote a letter to pay tribute to Krzyzewski.
Amid all the pageantry of Coach K's final Cameron Indoor Stadium appearance as head coach of the Duke Blue Devils on Saturday, there will be a rather important basketball game as well (6 p.m. ET, ESPN). The North Carolina Tar Heels will make the short journey to Cameron as a team trying to strengthen its position on the NCAA tournament bubble and also avenge a thoroughly one-sided 87-67 loss to its hated rivals in Chapel Hill on Feb. 5.
On Saturday night at 6 p.m. ET on ESPN, we will bear witness to one of the most anticipated events in college basketball. Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski will be on the sideline for his final game at historic Cameron Indoor Stadium. And to add a little extra intrigue, the No. 4 Blue Devils' opponent is the North Carolina Tar Heels. The greatest rivalry in college hoops will be renewed for the final time at Cameron with the legend presiding over the Blue Devils.
More than 41 years have passed since Mike Krzyzewski coached his first game at Cameron Indoor Stadium, an uneventful 67-49 win over Stetson on Nov. 29, 1980. Since then, the court, which now bears his name, has been home to countless magical moments, epic wins and thrilling rivalry games.
