Duke Blue Devils • Teambook

The Duke Blue Devils are one of college basketball's most prestigious programs, playing in the legendary Cameron Indoor Stadium known for its raucous 'Cameron Crazies' student section in Durham, North Carolina. Duke competes in the Atlantic Coast Conference and consistently ranks among the nation's elite, attracting five-star recruits who often become NBA lottery picks. The program's distinctive blue and white creates one of the most recognizable brands in college sports, with a national following that rivals any university. Coach Jon Scheyer continues the winning tradition established by his predecessor, maintaining Duke's position as a perennial national title contender. The Blue Devils' combination of academic prestige and basketball excellence makes them unique among college basketball powers.

Under Mike Krzyzewski's 42-year reign, Duke won five national championships and became synonymous with college basketball excellence, producing a record 13 Final Four appearances. 'Coach K' retired in 2022 as the winningest coach in Division I men's basketball history with 1,202 victories and a legacy that transformed Duke from a regional program into a global brand. Christian Laettner's buzzer-beater against Kentucky in the 1992 Elite Eight remains the most iconic shot in tournament history, helping Duke repeat as national champions. The rivalry with North Carolina, separated by just eight miles on Tobacco Road, is considered the greatest in college basketball, with both programs combining for 12 national titles. Grant Hill, J.J. Redick, Zion Williamson, and Jayson Tatum are among the countless stars who chose Duke, ensuring the program's pipeline to the NBA remains one of the strongest in the sport.
