Some Duke fans taunted N.C. State freshman Tyler Lewis about his late grandmother in Thursday's game, Lewis' father said Friday.
Lewis went to the foul line at 13:47 in the second half of Thursday's loss at Duke. Most fans in the Duke student section chanted, "Past your bed time," a playful jab at Lewis' youthful appearance.
Other Duke fans, according to Rick Lewis, chanted "How's your grandma?" Margie Lewis, Rick's mom and Tyler's grandmother, passed away on Feb. 1. Rick Lewis was at Thursday's game, sitting behind N.C. State's bench.
