No. 4 seed Tennessee used a stout defensive effort and an incredible offensive performance from Olivier Nkamhoua to stifle No. 5 seed Duke 65–52 in second round action in the East region on Saturday.
Nkamhoua scored 27 points on 10-13 shooting and added five rebounds, as he took over the Round of 32 game with a dominant performance.
The Volunteers celebrated by carrying Nkamhoua into the locker room and pouring water all over him while jumping around in celebration for reaching the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2019.
