Coach K and the history of that school in general. I’m one of the top guys in my class and to have them interested is just an honor.”Scottie Lewis (@Scott_lewis_23) on the phone with #CoachK moments before being offered a scholarship @DukeMBB pic.twitter.com/RfYorjkWNH

Both players revealed last week that they had recently had an intense conversation about possibly joining forces in college. “Very serious conversation,” the 6-foot-5 Antoine said in Philadelphia. “Honestly, it was like 11 o’clock at night, we were at a friend’s house. And it was me, Scottie and a friend, and we were in the room for a good two hours just talking about the options, like the benefits of going to the same school, what would happen if me and him went to the same school. It was a very in-depth serious conversation.” Are they more likely to join forces now? “I mean, yeah, he was spitting out some good facts,” Antoine said. “After that one night, [Lewis] is” pushing it more. Said Lewis: “We put something on Twitter and it was a pretty good reaction from the coaches from those schools and the media from those schools.”Scottie Lewis has different bounce ? @Scott_lewis_23 @teamrionational @LasVegasFab48 pic.twitter.com/43pfj5hZri
