The 2026 NBA Draft is less than a week away, and Duke basketball is set to continue its pipeline to the NBA.

Headlining the group of former Blue Devils projected to be NBA-bound is Cameron Boozer, who swept the Wooden and Associated Press Player of the Year awards as a freshman.

Boozer is not the only projected first-rounder from Duke, as Isaiah Evans is also a projected first round pick from the Blue Devils. Maliq Brown, meanwhile, is projected to be a second round pick.

Duke has seen a total of 116 players get drafted to the NBA. Under Jon Scheyer, there have been nine draft selections, with six of those coming in the first round.

The 2026 NBA Draft gets underway on Tuesday, June 23 at 8 p.m. ET at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York and will continue through Wednesday, June 24 with second-round selections.

Here's a look at where former Blue Devils are projected to land in this year's draft.
