Duke University's basketball program, on the brink of resurgence, has secured commitments from Cooper Flagg and Khaman Maluach, two of the projected top three picks in the 2025 draft, with the sentiment that "Duke is about to become DUKE again." Cooper Flagg, a standout from Montverde Academy in Maine, was recently named the Naismith Trophy National Player of the Year. He boasts season averages of 16.1 points, 7.6 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 2.7 blocks, and 1.6 steals, contributing to a perfect 30-0 regular season record. As the top player in the 2024 recruiting class, Flagg's accolades and background have garnered significant attention. The addition of 7'2" Khaman Maluach is expected to add considerable depth to Duke's lineup. The anticipation for Duke's performance is heightened by the upcoming ACC title game against UNC, with CollegeGameDay broadcasting live from Cameron Indoor Stadium.
