Jimmy Boeheim Plays His Last Syracuse Game for Brother Buddy

The collegiate playing careers for brothers Jimmy and Buddy Boeheim came to an end on Thursday after they lost 88–79 to Duke in the ACC Tournament.

Buddy was not on the court on Thursday after he was suspended one game for an apparent punch of Florida State’s Wyatt Wilkes during their Wednesday game.

In Buddy’s absence, his older brother Jimmy stepped up against Duke. He played a full 40 minutes, dropping season highs of 28 points and six three-pointers.

Following the loss, Jimmy was in tears knowing that his college career had likely come to an end.
