Duke's Scheyer-era postseason pattern persists as UConn stuns in Capital One Arena

Duke led by as many as 19 but let the game slip and fell 73-72 to UConn in the Final Four, marking the third straight postseason collapse under coach Jon Scheyer. The loss underscores a familiar pattern despite Scheyer rebuilding the program with a star freshman core and ACC titles, highlighted by Cayden Boozer's late turnover and Braylon Mullins' buzzer-beater three. While the season showcased progress, the questions now center on late-game adjustments and whether Duke should lean more on experience to finally win it all.

Duke's defense slips while stacking wins against ranked foes

Duke topped No. 24 SMU 82-75, extending its streak against ranked opponents, but coach Jon Scheyer said the defense has slipped recently and shown communication and rotation gaps. Duke’s earlier elite potential has cooled into a more inconsistent effort, though perimeter stopper Dame Sarr has emerged as a potential fix, creating a helpful defensive surge and multiple steals that could stabilize the unit as the team pursues deeper success.

Duke forward Kyle Filipowski, a potential lottery pick, has declared for the 2024 NBA Draft after leading the Blue Devils in scoring and rebounding for the second consecutive season. The 7-foot sophomore, who arrived as a top recruit in Jon Scheyer’s first class, improved his game this season and overcame controversies to solidify his draft stock. Filipowski's inside-out offensive versatility and improved 3-point shooting make him a desirable prospect in a lackluster draft class, and he joins freshman Jared McCain in declaring for the draft.
