Jay Williams, a Duke basketball legend, has caused a stir in the college basketball community by stating on national television that if he were in the transfer portal today, he would choose to go to the University of North Carolina (UNC) due to their fast style of play. This comment, which has been described as both hilarious and shocking, has led some to declare that the longstanding Duke-UNC rivalry is dead. It has also been noted that Williams, during a past interaction, praised UNC's class, including players Berry, Pinson, and Jackson, and recognized their potential to win a national championship, which they did. The exchange led to a remark about Williams being excommunicated from the Duke community.
