Austin Rivers left Duke after his freshman year but he left an indelible impression on Blue Devils fans. Why?
Because of what we now call the Austin Rivers Game.
In 2012, UNC sort of had the upper hand in the rivalry, at least briefly. John Henson was an impossible matchup and, well, UNC was very good.
In the Dean Dome shootout that year, UNC was playing well and was cruising. A defeat seemed very likely.
But in the last few minutes, Duke rallied. Tyler Thornton hit a three. Seth Curry hit a really long three.
