Villanova's Spellman cradling NCAA trophy: 'I love you'

Before Villanova freshman forward Omari Spellman makes a decision about declaring for the NBA draft this year or not, he's savoring his and the Wildcats' championship celebration.

No. 1 seed Villanova earned its second title in three years Monday with a 79-62 win over the No. 3 seed Michigan Wolverines, and Spellman had a very special moment one-on-one with the championship trophy. Luckily, it was caught on video.

While cradling the trophy, Spellman said:

"I'm a natty champ, boy. You can't ever take that away from me. I love you so much."

Spellman finished the championship game in San Antonio with eight points and 11 boards.
