Boston Celtics teammates Grant Williams and Jayson Tatum watched their respective alma maters face off in the NCAA Tournament this afternoon.
No. 4 seed Tennessee took down No. 5 seed Duke in the Round of 32 on Saturday, and Williams couldn’t be happier.
Williams, a former Tennessee star, posted a video of a not-so-happy Tatum as the game came to a close with a 65-52 final score.
“F–k Duke,” Williams said to the former Blue Devil.
Grant Williams:
“Fu*k Duke.” 😂
