A former Duke basketball star fully paid the college tuition for nine students.
It’s the season for giving and one former Duke basketball star is supplying one of the best gifts of the year.
The often criticized and rarely praised All-NBA point guard Kyrie Irving is always making a positive impact off the court in his community and the hardships of 2020 did not deter the New Jersey native from helping those in need.
Irving pledged to donate enough money to Lincoln University, a Historically Black College and University, for nine students, Shams Charania of The Athletic reported.
