Duke's Kyle Filipowski Gets Dragged For Tripping UNC Player

There's another tripping incident involving Duke's Kyle Filipowski but this time he's on the other side of the equation.

You see, trips involve a tripper and a trippee. In this instance, Filipowski was the tripper.

It happened on Saturday night in Durham with the Blue Devils hosting their archrivals, the UNC Tarheels.

At one point in the game, Filipowski and UNC forward Harrison Ingram both wound up tumbling to the floor. 

Ingram was the first to get up, and as he tried to hustle back on defense he tried to step over Filipowski.

However, as he did this, Filipowski appeared to intentionally raise his right leg which tripped Ingram and sent him tumbling again.

Intentional? It sure looked it, but who knows for sure except for Kyle Filipowski.

The incident didn't just bring to mind another Grayson Allen situation, another Duke star with a propensity to trip opponents, it also brought up a moment from just a few weeks back.

As I mentioned up top, Filipowski had his own tripping incident just a couple of weeks ago. He had a catastrophic collision with a Wake Forest fan who stormed the court after the Blue Devils' upset road loss late last month.

Of course, I'm kidding when I say it was catastrophic. Filipowski was barely grazed by the kid but sustained an injury in the incident.

He was, however, healthy enough to start the next game.

Of course, fans were drinking in the sweet, sweet irony after the latest Kyle Filipowski-involved tripping incident.

Duke and UNC never disappoint when they meet up, and I have a feeling that the whole injured leg storyline will follow Filipowski through the ACC Tournament as well as the NCAA Tournament.

Unfortunately, for Fiiipowski and Co. the Blue Devils fell to the Tar Heels, 84-79.
