Duke Divides Preseason Roster into Two Squads

Duke’s coaching staff divided the 15-player roster into two separate seven-man squads for the preseason scrimmage. Team Blue features sophomore guard Dame Sarr, sophomore guard Cayden Boozer, senior guard John Blackwell, freshman forward Maxime Meyer, freshman center Joaquim Boumtje-Boumtje, fifth-year senior forward Brock Davis, and senior guard Jacob Theodosiou. Team White includes freshman guard Bryson Howard, freshman guard Deron Rippey Jr., junior forward Patrick Ngongba II, senior guard Caleb Foster, freshman guard Cameron Williams, sophomore forward Sebastian Wilkins, and freshman forward Nick Arnold.

Senior forward Drew Scharnowski occupies the 15th spot on the roster but will not participate in the evening scrimmage. Scharnowski is currently sidelined with a knee injury and is not expected to suit up for either side during the event.

Recruiting Presence at Cameron Indoor Stadium

Beyond the roster scrimmage, the exhibition serves as a platform for prospective additions to visit the program. College basketball insider Matt Giles reported that Asa Montgomery will be in attendance at Cameron Indoor Stadium as part of an ongoing recruiting visit to Duke.

Fan-Fest Begins at 3 P.M. EST

The afternoon fan-fest begins at 3 p.m. EST tip-off. Spectators and students can access the venue starting one hour before each phase of the program.
