Watching the Blue Devils this season, it's easy to see that Mike Krzyzewski and Quinn Cook have a bond that goes beyond player and coach.
Ahead of Duke's appearance in the Final Four, the head coach revealed a little known fact about their bond. Krzyzewski got misty-eyed as he explained that Cook, who lost his father as a teenager, holds his hand in every team huddle.
"Every time we meet as a team and join hands, his hand is in mine," explained Krzyzewski.
"And now I so look forward to it."
