Duke Basketball Bench Players Go Insane In Slow Motion To R. Kelly [WATCH]

There are a few things you need to know in order to fully understand what's happening in this excellent sporty sports clip:

1. This is a regular season basketball game between Duke University (a perennial powerhouse) and Presbyterian College (diddly poo in comparison).
2. Duke (wearing white) has the basketball.
3. Duke player Marshall Plumlee is not a player who usually shoots three-pointers or any type of long shots. But the game is so out of hand (Duke won by 69 points) that he decides to try his luck from deep.
4. College basketball players tend to get excited on the bench. Strange things happen there.
5. Plumlee's shot is so exciting that the players on Duke's bench legitimately lose their minds.
6. R. Kelly FTW.

There. You're ready now:

College basketball has not provided much music news outside of Drake's October appearance with the University of Kentucky Wildcats.

Drizzy has given his full support to several conflicting athletic interests over the years, and his most recent endeavor was suiting up with the Kentucky Wildcats last month before an exhibition game. While he brought his signature lint roller to the event, it could not prevent him from air-balling his first shot in warmups.

Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari believes the Toronto rapper is on the King of Pop's level.

"I'm like, this guy, if he makes it, I wanna see if he'll change," Calipari told the Seth Davis Show (via MTV). "Grounded, the same guy, kind heart and then you find out like 'Wow', Michael Jackson talented, like megastar ... has not changed."

Coach Cal was asked how their bromance began.

"It started pretty early when he was just coming on to his own," he said. "I'll tell ya, I loved him as a person."
