In a recent rivalry game between Duke and North Carolina, a controversial incident occurred involving Duke star Kyle Filipowski and North Carolina forward Harrison Ingram. During the first half of the game, Filipowski and Ingram got tangled up as Filipowski defended a shot by Ingram. Filipowski later stated that he did not intend to trip Ingram, attributing the incident to his foot slipping as he was getting up from the floor.
Replays of the incident showed Filipowski kicking up his right leg and tripping Ingram as he tried to get back up after missing a shot. Despite UNC coach Hubert Davis signaling for officials to review the play, there was no stoppage or review during the game.
