There was a good moment before today's presser with Jon Scheyer ...
The context here is that one media member, Royal Howell of Carolina Blitz, has often worn baseball hats to these mid-week press conferences and some games this season. Around half the time, Royal's hat has been a White Sox hat -- so Scheyer, a Cubs fan, has sometimes playfully given him a hard time about it. Other times it's been Dodgers or Yankees -- not exactly the most-likeable teams either (sorry to those who are fans!).
So a bunch of us planned today as baseball hat day and wore our teams' hats. Here's Scheyer's reaction when he came in:
All well and fun, a light moment as we near the end of the regular season. Sharing here because I think, in addition to being pretty funny, it gives a glimpse behind the scenes of the Duke beat. Not that people disliked covering Coach K, but things are just looser at Duke this season -- at least in the media room and with the coach/media relationships.
