Duke Blue Devils Basketball History

A hundred years from now, most discussions of Duke basketball will likely begin with Mike Krzyzewski, but this blue blood program had a pretty solid foundation before Coach K came along and made it into a powerhouse.

The Blue Devils were regular contenders and often champions of the old Southern Conference before becoming part of the inaugural ACC class in 1953. They won the regular-season crown in that first season in the new conference with a 9-1 league mark, setting the stage for years of dominance.

The 1959-60 squad reached the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament, its best finish yet, and the school’s first Final Four berth was attained in 1963. Duke lost to Loyola (IL) in the national semifinals that year and then fell to UCLA in the title game in 1964, giving the Bruins and John Wooden their first of many NCAA crowns.

After another Final Four bid in 1966, the program began a stretch of mediocrity, culminating in a five-season stretch of the mid-1970s in which it went 13-47 in ACC play.

The 1977-78 team, with Jim Spanarkel and Mike Gminski both averaging over 20 points per game, lifted Duke to the national title game, where it lost to Kentucky. Bill Foster was named national coach of the year that season and he helped guide a Gminski-led team to two more tournament berths before leaving for a job at South Carolina.

Foster helped the once-proud Blue Devils return to national prominence and his replacement, Krzyzewski, needed just a few seasons to take them higher and make the team a regular atop NCAAB odds sheets. His 1983-84 team, loaded with star sophomores like Johnny Dawkins, Mark Alarie, Dave Henderson, and Jay Bilas got the program back to the NCAAs after a three-year hiatus, and that same collection would still be intact when Duke made it to the 1986 title game.

The Blue Devils won 37 games that season, which is still tied for the school record, and it was just the tip of the iceberg. Final Four trips came in 1988 and 1989 before another title game loss in 1990, this time by 30 points to a powerhouse at UNLV.

That loss, with a sophomore standout in Christian Laettner and a freshman guard in Bobby Hurley, left the Blue Devils 0-4 in national championships, but set the stage for perhaps the defining seasons in program history.

The 1990-91 Duke team, with some solid holdovers and dynamic freshman Grant Hill, steamrolled to the conference regular-season title and flew through the Midwest Region as a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament.

In perhaps the greatest game in team annals, the Blue Devils knocked off the defending champs, who were unbeaten and had won 45 in a row going back to the previous season. Laettner scored 28 points in that one and had a double-double two days later to help the team to its first national title with a win over Kansas.

Buoyed by a last-second game-winner by Laettner to finish an overtime thriller against Kentucky in the 1992 Sweet 16, the Blue Devils went back-to-back that year, elevating Krzyzewski and that crop of players to otherworldly status in Durham and beyond.

There would be three more national crowns in 2001, 2010 and 2015, and the only losing season in Duke’s 42 season under Krzyzewski came in 1994, when he took a leave of absence following back surgery.

The Coach K train finally reached its terminus in 2021-22, as the winningest coach in Division I men’s basketball history called it a career. His last team, led by standout freshman Paolo Banchero, was a prolific offensive squad. Duke Blue Devils team stats showed a squad ranked eighth nationally with 80.1 points per game. It lost to the rival Tar Heels in a classic Final Four contest.

Duke Blue Devils NCAAB FAQs

What is the highest win total in the Duke's history?

Both the 1985-86 and 1998-99 teams won 37 games. Both lost in the national title game.

What was the worst season in the Duke Blue Devils history?

There were years with worse records than the 1994-95 edition that went 13-18, but that was a tough campaign for those connected to the program. Krzyzewski tried to coach through the pain following back surgery and guided a team ranked No. 8 nationally to start the season to a 9-3 record. However, he had to step aside to manage the pain and recover away from the team, turning the controls over to assistant Pete Gaudet.

Who is the greatest player in Duke's history?

Grant Hill was perhaps the most electric talent to go through Duke, J.J. Redick was the top scorer in program history and point guards Johnny Dawkins and Bobby Hurley were instrumental in elevating the team to new levels. But you simply can’t go against the one collegiate player selected to join the Dream Team in 1992, as was the case with Christian Laettner.
A 6-11 star out of the Buffalo, NY, area, Laettner won the Wooden Award, the Naismith Award, the AP Player of the Year Award, the NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player award and several other accolades while guiding the team to two national titles. He is third all-time in program history in scoring and rebounding.
