It’s only been a few days since Duke lost to Houston in the national semifinals in one of the biggest collapses in Final Four history. Since that game, no player on the Blue Devils roster has declared for the NBA Draft or entered the transfer portal.
Duke has yet to make an addition via the transfer portal, but that is expected to change shortly.
The main domino that will officially start Duke’s offseason is when Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel and Khaman Maluach declare for the 2025 NBA Draft. Flagg is the odds-on favorite to become the No. 1 overall pick this summer.
Heading into Year 4 of the Jon Scheyer era, Duke faces plenty of questions. With Flagg, Knueppel, and Maluach all likely heading to the NBA, the Blue Devils could be looking at a major overhaul of their starting lineup again. Tulane transfer Sion James has exhausted his eligibility, and veteran guard Tyrese Proctor has a decision to make about returning to school for another season or turning pro.
Two other names who will have to decide their future with the program are Caleb Foster and Isaiah Evans. Foster, a former touted recruit from the 2023 recruiting cycle, played in 37 games and averaged just 5.1 points. Evans, a former five-star recruit who primarily came off the bench, averaged 7.0 points.
CBS Sports is tracking the status of the Duke roster and recruiting class in real time. Here’s where every current Duke player and commit currently stand.
Duke players with a decision to make
Tyrese Proctor | G | Jr.
GP: 38 | PPG: 12.4 | RPG: 3.0 | APG: 2.2
Proctor has the most intriguing stay-or-go decision on this Duke roster. Proctor has already bypassed the draft cycle twice, which could be his chance to take his talents to the next level. Returning for his senior year would equip Duke with a steady presence in the backcourt. Proctor is likely a second-round pick in the 2025 NBA Draft if he goes that route.
Caleb Foster | G | Soph.
GP: 38 | PPG: 4.9 | RPG: 1.7 | APG: 1.4
Foster was a starter entering last season but was replaced in the lineup by James. The former highly touted recruit from the 2023 recruiting cycle averaged just 14 minutes per game after playing over 25 minutes as a freshman. Foster could return to Duke or explore his options in the transfer portal.
Maliq Brown | F | Jr.
GP: 26 | PPG: 2.5 | RPG: 3.7 | APG: 1.5
His stats don’t justify how valuable Brown was this past season. Brown was limited to just 26 games due to a shoulder injury but was one of Duke’s best defenders when he saw the court. Brown was a key addition to Duke’s portal class last spring.
Isaiah Evans | G/F | Fr.
GP: 36 | PPG: 6.8 | RPG: 1.1 | APG: 0.5
Evans has been compared to former standout forward Brandon Ingram. The former star recruit from the 2024 recruiting cycle saw the floor sparingly in his freshman season and averaged just 13.7 minutes. Evans could return to Duke, declare the NBA Draft as a potential late first-round pick, or explore his options in the transfer portal.
Cooper Flagg | G/F | Fr.
GP: 37 | PPG: 19.2 | RPG: 7.5 | APG: 4.2
It’s only a matter of time until one of the best one-and-done players in college basketball history announces his intention to declare for the NBA Draft. The biggest question mark surrounding Flagg coming into the season was his offense, and he continued to improve throughout the year. Flagg is a no-brainer No. 1 overall draft pick, and the team that wins the lottery next month should celebrate for weeks.
Kon Knueppel | G/F | Fr.
GP: 39 | PPG: 14.4 | RPG: 4.0 | APG: 2.7
Knueppel would be the best pro prospect on almost every team in the country … outside of the school he committed to play for. Knueppel is a potential top-10 pick, and his 3-point shooting is his biggest strength. Knueppel shot 40.6% from the 3-point line.
Khaman Maluach | C | Fr.
GP: 39 | PPG: 8.6 | RPG: 6.6 | APG: 0.5
Maluach should be a lottery pick when it’s all said and done. He is a fantastic finisher around the rim, and his size down low makes him tough to score on. He has one of the highest ceilings of any player in the 2025 NBA Draft class.
Patrick Ngongba II | C | Fr.
GP: 30 | PPG: 3.9 | RPG: 2.7 | APG: 0.8
The former four-star recruit averaged 10.6 minutes per game and made 30 appearances for the Blue Devils. If Ngongba returns to Duke, his role should grow significantly in Year 2.
Darren Harris | G/F | Fr.
GP: 21 | PPG: 2.0 | RPG: 1.1 | APG: 0.3
Harris was another member of Duke’s star-studded 2024 recruiting class. Harris logged just 21 appearances this past season. He is a candidate for a larger role in the second season of his college career.
Duke players not returning in 2025-26
Sion James (Out of eligibility)
GP: 39 | PPG: 8.6 | RPG: 4.2 | APG: 2.9
The former Tulane standout played just one season with Duke and certainly left his mark on the program. James connected on 41.3% of his 3-pointers and was one of the best on-ball defenders on the team.
Mason Gillis (Out of eligibility)
GP: 37 | PPG: 4.1 | RPG: 2.6 | APG: 0.8
Gillis transferred to Duke last offseason after spending the first four seasons of his career at Purdue. Gillis joined elite company as one of just a handful of college basketball players to reach the Final Four with two different programs.
Duke’s incoming recruiting class
Duke’s 2025 recruiting class is loaded. The Blue Devils finished with the top-ranked recruiting class last cycle, and this upcoming class is also ranked No. 1 overall by 247Sports. The headliner of this class is five-star forward Cameron Boozer, the son of Duke and NBA legend Carlos Boozer. Cameron’s brother, Cayden Boozer, is also a member of this upcoming recruiting class.
No. 3 Cameron Boozer
Boozer is a projected top-three pick in the 2026 NBA Draft and is one of the most accomplished players in high school basketball. Not many programs have the luxury of replacing the No. 1 overall pick in the NBA Draft with another stud forward with future NBA Draft pedigree of their own, but the Blue Devils are on that shortlist.
No. 14 Shelton Henderson
The five-star forward out of Bellaire, Texas, is a candidate to be in the starting lineup on opening night, depending on how the rest of the offseason shakes out. Henderson has great size for the forward position with a 6-foot-10 wingspan.
No. 15 Nikolas Khamenia
The five-star forward out of Studio City, Calif., was a McDonald’s All-American selection. He committed to Duke over UCLA, Arizona, North Carolina and Gonzaga, among others.
No. 24 Cayden Boozer
The brother of Cameron Boozer is a fantastic prospect in his own right. Boozer, the No. 24 overall player in the 2025 recruiting class by 247Sports, committed to Duke over Miami. Boozer should provide Duke with valuable guard depth next season.

Pilhado revela como os torcedores espanhóis avaliam o trabalho de Ancelotti: “Não é estudioso”
Treinador estaria negociando com a CBF (Foto: Divulgação/Real Madrid) O técnico italiano Carlo Ancelotti está próximo de ser o novo treinador da seleção brasileira. Atualmente no Real Madrid, o multicampeão não deve ter o seu contrato renovado e pode sair antes mesmo do Mundial de Clubes. E o jornalista Thiago Asmar, conhecido como Pilhado, está na Espanha passando uns dias e comentou sobre a visão dos espanhóis em relação ao italiano. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE No programa Bate-Pronto, da Jovem Pan, Pilhado contou que Ancelotti não é conhecido como um grande estrategista por lá, tendo um perfil mais de comandar o grupo do que propriamente de invenções táticas. “No Brasil se fala muito do Ancelotti, realmente ele é vencedor. Mas, aqui em Madrid, muitos acham que ele é mais um técnico de grupo, como o Renato Gaúcho é visto no Brasil, não […]
Hunter Renfrow signs with Panthers, returning after year off due to autoimmune disease
Hunter Renfrow’s 2025 comeback is meaningful beyond a homecoming with the team he grew up rooting for.The Carolina Panthers signed Renfrow, originally from Myrtle Beach, S.C., to a one-year deal on Sunday. The 29-year-old receiver joins the Panthers after sitting out all of last season with the Las Vegas Raiders due to what he has now revealed as an autoimmune disease that caused significant weight loss, fatigue and high fevers.Advertisement“It kicked my butt pretty good,” Renfrow told Panthers.com. “Last year, I fluctuated in weight; I went down to 150 pounds. I had like seven straight days of 103-degree fevers. It’s tough to play when you’re not feeling great.”Renfrow’s ulcerative colitis diagnosis pulled him away from the physicality he had shown in his first five NFL seasons, including a Pro Bowl campaign in 2021.

Com contas reprovadas, Corinthians volta a discutir sobre o impeachment do presidente Augusto Melo
Augusto Melo, presidente do Corinthians (Foto: Reprodução) As contas do Corinthians em 2024 foram reprovadas no começo desta semana pelo Conselho Deliberativo do clube, em reunião. O balanço, referente ao primeiro ano do mandato do presidente Augusto Melo, pode fazer voltar as movimentações para que o dirigente seja alvo de impeachment. De acordo com o Uol Esporte, com o veto ao balanço do último ano, já haverá de forma automática a entrada de um processo de impedimento (que, no caso de Melo, seria o terceiro) do atual mandatário corintiano. Tal pedido deverá conter assinaturas de, pelo menos, 51 conselheiros ativos do Timão e terá de ser remetido ao presidente do órgão, Romeu Tuma Júnior, que encaminhará o parecer para a Comissão de Ética e Disciplina.
