"This has been a lifelong dream of mine, and I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to pursue it," Filipowski posted on X.

He was the ACC Rookie of the Year and MVP of the conference tournament during his freshman campaign.
"Thank you, Duke Nation," Filipowski wrote on social media. "Your unwavering encouragement and belief in me have fueled my determination to reach this point. Whether you've cheered for me from the stands, followed my career online, or simply sent positive vibes my way, please know that your support has meant the world to me."
