Duke fan here. You guys have a great team. Absolutely great. Dawkins earned a spot in the NBA after that game. He did that against all top prospects in this draft. UCF you have nothing to hang your heads about you guys will be back. We got lucky too.
Champ Solo If Michigan let this one go they made the biggest mistake ever lol. Dawkins is a scoring machine. He did it with such ease. I wish this guy the absolute best.
I love it. I definitely became a fan. I watched all of the coverage after the win last week leading all the way up to this interview. The way that game played out was incredible. The ball found all of the right hands in that final two minutes. All of you young men put on a beautiful performance and deserve to be compensated for the show.
This Young Man Has Class! S/o to you bro....I know he upset but damn he not showing it at all! Maturity At Its Finest From A College Player Who Was Just Eliminated NOT Even A Hour Prior To This Interview. #Impressed
We need him on the Lakers. Magic and Rob, please draft this kid. He should be a 1st rd pick but he's gonna get punished for staying in school. Dawkins is a 10yr pro, can shoot the lights out, athletic, and can play some D.
You win some you lose some you’ve gotta learn from it the basketball gods where not with UCF last night but they played there best basketball game last night and fell short it hurts but I hope the coach will stay at UCF because I see good things for this program mark my word.
Very diplomatic and politically correct fellow. Said that his father who is quite familiar with Duke basketball stated that you control what you can control and that sometimes, things just don't work out in your favor. Euphemism for the refs weren't in our corner towards the end. As for whether Barrett pushed him in the back to get that rebound and put-back, check out the video replay. Why would Dawkins jump across to the other side of the basket and so deep under the basket while the ball was careening in the other direction? Video, clearly, showed both of R.J.'s hands and arms extending in the direction that Dawkins "jumped."
Andre Johnson .... With a guy like Tacko, you need him to do 5 things each game in the NBA. If he does these, he will be a successful pick in the 2nd round at his height: get 7 points, 5 blocks, 7 rebounds, 5 fouls. Yes, you read that correctly. If he gets 15 to 20 minutes of playtime per game and does those stats, then he is a success. No one is asking him to be a superstar.
@@FAMOUSdaboss .. No Doubt 30 points was outstanding... But a Small Fundamental like A Hard Box Out when you Under the rim cost them the game.. UFC Should have won..
@@rawtez253 .. Your right Fatigue did play a part.. 30 years ago when I was playing I wondered why the Coach and players would be yelling from the bench "Box Out Box Out" It was a reminder because of Fatigue..
Good for you, fam. Dawkins couldn't MISS all those difficult shots, but at the end it was the TIP IN, the TAP IN that you COULDN'T DO!! Hahaha. GO DUKE
His father is a class act. His son is a class act. Johnny Dawkins. Pride of DC basketball legacy.
Straight up!
Became a fan today hope big things for him

Thanks man. This will fuel him in the future for sure!
How did Michigan let this dude go.

Facts! #DukeFanHere
Hell even before this game he was NBA ....
This young man was outstanding.

These guys are for real, and it was up to chance whether or not Duke would escape a colossal upset. Respect to UCF.

This guy is gonna be a hall of famer mark my words
NBA Spotlite he had one good game... he’s not that amazing
He should have dunked the ball with 2 hands, 5:45 Forget senior year. AD, LOOKED like a man amongst boy out there. Hes a lottery pick now.
My new favorite player. Straight class.
Oh, and the best player in the tourney this year (yes, including the Duke and Murray State kids).

Dawkins reminds me of those 80's/90's college players that look 36 years old.
Y’all was the better team hands down
Win some lose some.....learn from both!!!!
I'm a true Blue Duke Fan, but THIS young man, Aubrey Dawkins is something special.
I never thought he could miss
Good player, should’ve came to duke
Just lost a tough game and reporter is asking about Duke memories. Really.
Why does he have a tape recorder from the 80’s in front of his face?
Sucks to have to answer these stupid questions after a loss like that
Great job Aubrey, and great job UCF.
Great Kid played his Heart Out
Dawkins played his ass off in this game. Felt so heartbroken when they they ball tipped out.
Class!
The team that drafts Zion Williamson in the first round, should draft Tacko Fall in the second round.

@@dudewat212 exactly he can be productive im not buying that he can't.
My new favorite college basketball player.
seems like a class act
My hats off to that UCF team.
What a great kid !!
Great game and interview just let the other teams know, that duke can be bet. Just stay fundamental sound when it counts .
The new classes of future NBA kids are alot more intelligent.
Hope my pistons draft him I like his game
Who said he was the best player on the floor? They didn’t say who said that after I replayed it 100 times
Legit Company coach k
Legit Company the coach from duke said it in the press conferences
Great Kid.. Man but he missed the oop.. Didn't box out hard on the free throw miss.. An missed the game winning tap back.. SMDH
Maurice Brodie stop hating dickhead
Maurice Brodie also scored over 30 points against the best team in the tournament......
@@FAMOUSdaboss .. No Doubt 30 points was outstanding... But a Small Fundamental like A Hard Box Out when you Under the rim cost them the game.. UFC Should have won..
True but fatigue plays a part especially toward the end.
@@rawtez253 .. Your right Fatigue did play a part.. 30 years ago when I was playing I wondered why the Coach and players would be yelling from the bench "Box Out Box Out" It was a reminder because of Fatigue..
I'm sure he could smell that victor! The put back was so close
Pacers please take notice! Hellava draft class in 2019
Gd guy NBA look out
I hope my Wolves draft this guy. What a gamer. They deserved to win.
He has the longest deltoids ever. I guess that's how he was able to shoulder the load for his team.
Go hard go hard go harrrrrd
He’s going to the bulls
We can use a SF with all around game
He was jumping off my screen !
This nigga turns 24 in a month playing against 18 year old Zion n RJ lol
Bad calls
This guy looks like a 10 yr NBA vet.
UCF got cheated, Like many of Dukes opponents
Good for you, fam. Dawkins couldn't MISS all those difficult shots, but at the end it was the TIP IN, the TAP IN that you COULDN'T DO!! Hahaha. GO DUKE
Class act very good team.
@@robertpenn8272 Oh absolutely. Well mannered.
