In a span of just 10 seconds, everything unraveled for Duke on Sunday night. A combination of UConn’s relentless defense, a tipped pass by Cayden Boozer and a clutch three-pointer from Braylon Mullins completely flipped the game, leaving the Blue Devils stunned.

Given how chaotic and dramatic the final sequence was, reactions from those connected to Duke were immediate — and unforgettable. The most telling came from head coach Jon Scheyer, who was caught on camera during the final possession.

As the shot went up, Scheyer could only stare in disbelief. His expression said it all as the ball dropped through the net with less than a second remaining. Fans quickly seized on the moment, with his stunned reaction spreading rapidly online.

Scheyer wasn’t alone. Duke’s radio announcer also reacted strongly, arguing that UConn should have been assessed a technical foul for celebrating after Mullins’ game-winning shot.

Technically, he had a point. However, officials have generally been more lenient with celebration-related calls during the tournament — a trend many believe is appropriate, as long as celebrations don’t interfere with play. In this case, action had effectively stopped when Malachi Smith ran onto the court following the basket.

Former Duke star and current broadcaster Grant Hill also delivered a memorable reaction. Calling the game alongside Bill Raftery and Ian Eagle, Hill initially reacted with shock before letting out a knowing smirk and eventually placing his hands on his head in disbelief. Despite the dramatic finish, he quickly regained composure and continued with analysis.

On the other side, the reaction was pure celebration. UConn’s camp erupted — with even Dan Hurley’s mother delivering an unfiltered, emotional response to the dramatic victory.

For Duke, it was a heartbreaking loss — the kind that lingers. But if nothing else, the raw reactions captured in those final moments perfectly reflected the intensity and unpredictability of college basketball at its finest.
