Bryce Harper hung out with the Duke basketball team after its win in Las Vegas

On Saturday night, the Duke men's basketball team -- currently ranked fifth in the nation -- cruised to 94-45 road win over University of Nevada-Las Vegas. After the game, they met up with somebody who also knows a little something about excellence and Las Vegas: Sin City native Bryce Harper.

Harper -- who earned his GED after his sophomore year at Las Vegas High School so he could play baseball at the College of Southern Nevada, where he promptly slashed an absurd .443/.526/.987 -- has long identified as a Duke fan, unapologetically sporting Blue Devils gear and drawing Instagram compliments from legendary coach MIke Krzyzewski. So, naturally, Coach K stopped by to say hello:

Not bad for a trip back home.
