UNC Fans Leave Court Before Final Seconds Against Duke

The 14th-ranked North Carolina Tar Heels celebrated a thrilling 71-68 victory over No. 4 Duke, marked by a dramatic 3-pointer from Seth Trimble just before the buzzer, prompting fans to storm the court. After officials reviewed the play and added 0.4 seconds back on the clock, the chaos continued but ultimately did not affect the outcome. This win, UNC’s first over Duke since March 2024, came after a 13-point deficit and a 9-0 run in the final minutes. However, the school faces a $50,000 fine for violating ACC court-storming rules.
