The Blue Devils, who finished the regular season 29-2 and as the nation's top-ranked team, are coming off their second straight ACC Tournament title, taking down Virginia 74-40 to claim the league's regular-season and tournament crown for back-to-back seasons. They did so without starting center Patrick Ngongba II (foot soreness) and starting point guard Caleb Foster (broken foot). Ngongba should be back for the 2026 Men's NCAA Tournament, while Foster could potentially return if the Blue Devils make another deep run.
It marks Duke's 24th ACC Tournament title, and its third under head coach Jon Scheyer in just four seasons.
Duke now looks to secure a No. 1 seed for the second straight year and 16th time in program history heading into March Madness.
Here is where the Blue Devils stand in bracketology following the ACC Tournament and ahead of Selection Sunday.
