The Blue Devils are scheduled to meet with President Barack Obama Tuesday, but they get a little surprise the night before.
Duke's 2015 national championship squad received its championship rings and watches from head coach Mike Krzyzewski Monday night after players from last year's team—as well as this year's freshmen—traveled to Washington ahead of their meeting with Obama. The team tweeted a picture of the eight players that saw the floor during last year's national championship game against Wisconsin showing off their new jewelry.
