Omaha, Neb. — Duke freshman forward Wendell Carter Jr. says it will bring back a lot of memories when he sees Kansas sophomore center Udoka Azubuike on the other side of the court before Sunday’s Elite Eight game at CenturyLink Center.

Carter and Azubuike were AAU teammates winning the prestigious Peach Jam together. But once the ball is thrown in the air, Carter said both players are too competitive to let it affect them.

“This is one of the reasons I play basketball, for these moments like this,” Carter said. “I just want to go out there and play as hard as I can and do whatever I have to do to make sure our team is the one on top.”
