The Duke basketball team shared some behind-the-scenes photos from its media day on Thursday, giving Blue Devils fans some early looks at the new faces on the team.
With 10 players from the 2023-24 roster now in the NBA or with a different program, head coach [autotag]Jon Scheyer[/autotag] brought in six freshmen and four transfers to replenish his team.
While [autotag]Cooper Flagg[/autotag], the top-ranked player in the class, didn’t make an appearance on the team’s social media teaser, fellow five-star freshman [autotag]Kon Knueppel[/autotag] did. The Wisconsin native has emerged as one of the breakout stars from this summer as his teammates keep praising his shooting ability and he keeps rising higher on 2025 draft boards.
The team also shared an official glimpse at Tulane transfer [autotag]Sion James[/autotag], a presumed starter for the 2024-25 season. James, a muscular 6-foot-6 guard who weighs in at 220 pounds, averaged a career-high 14.0 points and 5.4 rebounds with the Green Wave last season.
[autotag]Caleb Foster[/autotag], one of two returning starters on the roster, showed back up in his No. 1 jersey after he’s spent the past few weeks as the new host of The Brotherhood Podcast.
