As many basketball fans know, the Duke Blue Devils are well represented at the NBA level. Although Jon Scheyer has continued this trend recently, there are still many NBA alumni still playing who were coached by the legendary Mike Krzyzewski.

Current Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving is one of those players. Despite missing the entire 2025-26 season while recovering from an ACL tear, Irving has received impressive ratings from the popular basketball video game NBA 2K27 this offseason. That trend continued earlier this week, as Irving finally received his overall rating.

In a recent list posted by NBA 2K, Irving was placed in a tie for the No. 31 spot with an 87 overall rating. Irving, a former NBA champion with the Cleveland Cavaliers and a nine-time All-Star averaged 24.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.5 blocks during the 2024-25 season, his last NBA action to date.
