College basketball live updates, scores, results: Kentucky vs. Alabama and more
Selection Sunday just two days away, but there’s plenty of college basketball action to keep up with on conference tournament weekend.
Top-ranked Duke returned to action on Friday without Cooper Flagg after the potential NBA Draft No. 1 pick sprained his ankle on Thursday. Without Flagg, the Blue Devils hung on to beat North Carolina 74-71 in the ACC semifinals after nearly coughing up a 24-point lead.
UNC had a chance to take the lead in the final seconds, trailing by one with two free throws. But the first missed and the second was waved off for a lane violation, paving the way for the Duke victory.
Beyond that, there are plenty of other noteworthy games on tap. Auburn, Michigan State, Houston and St. John’s all won Friday as they all vie for a potential No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament.

FINAL: Duke 74, UNC 71
An off-balance desperation shot clanks wide and Duke will advance by the skin of its teeth, and the sole of Jae’Lyn Withers’ sneaker. What a bizarre ending to a great comeback.
-
Kneuppel makes both, but UNC gets the ball into Duke territory and calls a timeout with 2.5 seconds left. Tar Heels aren’t dead yet, but they have to avoid a foul.
-
UNC fouls Kon Kneuppel, Duke’s best FT shooter, with 2.8 seconds left.
-
Good lord. UNC’s Jae’Lyn Withers gets called for a lane violation and Lubin’s make on the second doesn’t count. UNC has to foul again. That is an emotional crusher.
-
Hoo boy, Lubin misses the first one. Shooting for OT now.
-
Double-whammy for Duke. Ven-Allen Lubin draws a foul with four seconds left and will get two free throws, and Khaman Maluach fouls out. Here’s UNC shooting for the lead.
-
Proctor misses the first of the one-and-one and it’s UNC basketball, 72-71, with 17.6 seconds left. This is March.
-
UNC fouls with 21.7 seconds left, Tyrese Proctor to the line.

Kentucky woman finds human body parts in package shipped to her home

HOPKINSVILLE, Ky. (WDKY) — A Kentucky woman got a grisly surprise just days before Halloween when a package containing human body parts showed up at her door.
On Thursday, Oct. 30, the Christian County Coroner Scott Daniel told Nexstar’s WDKY that the body parts she’d received by mistake the previous day were from a cadaver and meant for surgical training, not transplant.
“We never know what kind of call we’re going to get, they’re all over the place, but last night was a little different,” Daniel told radio station WKDZ the following day. “We had a resident here in Hopkinsville who opened the box – it was supposed to be some urgent medical supplies – and when she opened the box she found human arms and fingers.”
The coroner said the woman was “obviously a little shook” after opening the cardboard box, which contained four fingers and two arms, packed in plastic ice packs.
Daniel said the woman called deputies with the Christian County Sheriff’s Office, who responded and notified the coroner’s office.
Officials reportedly took the cadaver parts to the morgue on Wednesday morning and contacted the carrier, making arrangements to get them to their proper destination.
Daniel said the parts were shipped from Nashville and wound up at the wrong address after a courier mix-up, adding that Hopkinsville officials ensured that the woman ultimately received the supplies she was waiting for, according to the Lexington-Herald Leader.
