ACC Men’s Basketball Power Rankings: Duke finally sits at the top

The Duke Blue Devils finally sit atop of the power rankings after four straight wins with a surprise team sneaking into second. Check out how the rest of the conference shakes out.

After weeks in the No. 2 or No. 3 spot, the Duke Blue Devils have finally emerged atop our ACC power rankings after North Carolina and Virginia both suffered upsets earlier in the week.

Duke has won four straight games since its road loss to the Tar Heels, now just half a game back from first place in the ACC standings.

Another team rocketing up the standings is the Pittsburgh Panthers. Pitt holds the longest active winning streak in the conference, having won its last five games and handed Virginia its first loss in a month.

Pitt is still 3.5 games back from first place in the ACC, but they’re climbing their way back into NCAA Tournament contention.

Here’s what our full power rankings look like as of February 19.
