Duke’s 2024-25 basketball roster is making a significant mark on the NBA draft, showcasing their talent with three players selected in the top 10. Cooper Flagg was picked first overall by the Dallas Mavericks, setting an impressive precedent. Following Flagg, the Charlotte Hornets drafted Kon Knueppel with the fourth pick, and Khaman Maluach was selected tenth by the Houston Rockets, eventually landing with the Phoenix Suns due to a prior trade involving Kevin Durant.

As the draft progresses into Day Two, Tyrese Proctor and Sion James remain hopeful to be selected. Proctor, an Australian point guard known for his impressive passing skills, is drawing interest from teams like the Sacramento Kings. Meanwhile, James, a versatile defender standing 6'6”, is reportedly on the radar of the Golden State Warriors as a potential bench contributor.
