One of the key stay-or-go decisions Duke would be monitoring this offseason was guard Caleb Foster. The former four-star recruit from the 2023 recruiting cycle entered the 2024-25 season as a starter before being replaced by Sion James in the starting lineup.
Foster announced on Thursday that he will be returning to school for the upcoming 2025-26 season.
This news comes just days after star freshman Kon Knueppel officially declared for the 2025 NBA Draft. Knueppel is the first Blue Devils player to announce his draft decision. Days after Knueppel announced his intention to enter the draft, star guard Tyrese Proctor also declared for the NBA Draft.
Duke has yet to make an addition via the transfer portal, but that is expected to change shortly. All eyes now turn to Cooper Flagg and Khaman Maluach to declare for the 2025 NBA Draft before the April 26 deadline. 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. James has exhausted his eligibility, and Proctor will be turning pro.
