LA Clippers’ Players React to National Championship Game

North Carolina defeated Gonzaga 71-65 in the National Championship game Monday evening and LA Clippers players reacted.

North Carolina won their sixth National Championship in school history Monday night, defeating first-timer Gonzaga by a score of 71-65. This is the second year in a row the Tar Heels have made it to the final game. Losing infamously on a game-winning shot last season, Roy Williams and his ball club finally got their redemption.

Some LA Clippers players took to Twitter to react to the game, most notably being Brice Johnson, who fell short of winning it all last season as a Tar Heel.

Johnson, who played four seasons at North Carolina, averaged 17 points and 10 rebounds last season. In last years championship game, Johnson put up 14 points, eight rebounds, and one block in 31 minutes.

J.J. Redick, who is one of the all-time Duke greats, didn’t exactly congratulate North Carolina on their victory, but he did voice his opinion on the game.

Chris Paul, who went to Wake Forest, took to Instagram to congratulate Theo Pinson.

March Madness officially comes to an end. Brackets were busted, bets were lost, and another hectic year of college basketball wraps up. Which means one thing, all eyes turn to the NBA. With the playoffs starting in less than two weeks, the LA Clippers will turn their eyes towards a championship of their own.
