On the heels of back-to-back wins against Oregon State and Xavier, No. 8 Duke now looks ahead to its championship tilt at the Phil Knight Legacy against No. 24 Purdue in Portland, Ore. With both the Blue Devils and Boilermakers in pursuit of a trophy in the Rose Quarter, our beat writers make their predictions before Sunday's 3:30 p.m. tipoff at the Moda Center.
The Blue Devils are back, and so is Cameron Chronicles.
It was a night of ‘firsts’ in Cameron Indoor Stadium. The first men’s basketball game of the season. The first game for the many freshmen that packed the student section. The first collegiate points scored for four rookie Blue Devils. And of course, the first win in the Jon Scheyer era.
With the official tipoff of a new era at Duke just days away, The Chronicle's senior beat writers predict all things Blue Devil basketball.
As Duke embarks on its 2022-23 season, head coach Jon Scheyer embarks on what he surely hopes is the start of a long and prosperous journey himself. Duke has a new head coach for the first team in 42 years, and it’s no secret that setting the tone early in your career is crucial to success in the future. For Scheyer, or any coach that banks on top recruits year in and year out, it is essential to avoid playing catch-up in the first few seasons. Presenting as a strong leader and making a seamless transition would be formative for setting the tone of Scheyer’s career. But what exactly can the world expect of this year’s team?

No. 2-seed Duke comes in as a four-point favorite in this Elite Eight matchup against No. 4-seed Arkansas in San Francisco.

GREENVILLE, S.C.—In 2019, Tom Izzo and Michigan State ended Duke’s dream-team-esque NCAA tournament run. That was the last time the two programs met in March. This time it was a different story, and head coach Mike Krzyzewski made sure of it.
No. 2-seed Duke enters its Round of 32 matchup as 6.5-point a favorite but has a tough draw against No. 7-seed Michigan State. The Blue Devils last played the Spartans in the 2020-21 season and lost, and the last time these two squads met in the NCAA tournament, Michigan State came out on top. Let's take a look at who our beats think will be moving on to the Sweet Sixteen.

Saturday is Coach K's final dance in Cameron Indoor Stadium. And it's against North Carolina. No further introduction.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and for Duke’s upcoming game against North Carolina, a ticket is worth nearly $75,000.
Mike Krzyzewski has been the head coach of the Duke men’s basketball program for 42 years. 1,430 games and counting. A lifetime of memories. His tenure as a Blue Devil is older than the median age of Americans.
SYRACUSE, N.Y.—It was 23 degrees with a foot of snow on the ground in Syracuse, but Duke was flaming hot inside the Carrier Dome.
