Duke`s recruiting prowess shines as they maintain the top class, while key players make waves in the NBA Draft.

Duke basketball`s head coach Jon Scheyer and his staff have been on the hunt for talent, recently setting their sights on Moravian Prep`s four-star prospect, Kohl Rosario. However, Rosario has reclassified to 2025 and made a commitment to the Kansas Jayhawks, now sitting at No. 72 in the 2025 rankings. Despite this setback, Duke remains a powerhouse in recruiting, boasting the No. 1 class with five commitments, including four five-stars and one four-star, led by the highly touted Cameron Boozer.

In a historic turn, the 2024-25 Duke Blue Devils starting five made waves during the 2025 NBA Draft, with all players selected in the first two rounds. Cooper Flagg was the crown jewel, going first overall to the Dallas Mavericks, followed closely by Kon Knueppel at No. 4 to the Charlotte Hornets, and Khaman Maluach at No. 10 to the Phoenix Suns. Sion James and Tyrese Proctor also made their mark, being picked by the Hornets and Cavaliers, respectively. This remarkable feat echoes the achievements of Kentucky in 2012 and UConn in 2006.

Meanwhile, Auburn Tigers` Johni Broome was selected 35th overall by the Philadelphia 76ers, capping off an impressive collegiate career where he earned accolades as The Sporting News Men’s College Basketball Player of the Year. Broome`s tenacity and defensive prowess were pivotal in leading Auburn to the Final Four, despite needing to refine his shooting skills to enhance his game further.
