The roster is headlined by Tyran Stokes and new additions Tre White, Melvin Council Jr., and Trey Kaufman-Renn, who were added to the team in recent weeks from court injunctions. Meanwhile, Duke is projected as one of the best teams in the country. Joaquim Boumtje Boumtje is one of the most anticipated young basketball prospects in the sport, while Wisconsin transfer John Blackwell and returning senior Caleb Foster are also key pieces.
- Series history:Duke holds the all-time series lead dating back to 1985, winning nine of 16 possible matchups. The Jayhawks were 2-6 against the Blue Devils prior to the Bill Self era, though, so they have fared better in the current century. This game won't count toward the all-time record.
Meet the Coaches

A former player and All-American at the university, he's coached the Blue Devils to a 124-25 record. His squad reached the Final Four in 2025 but lost to UConn in shocking fashion a year ago.
Bill Self, Kansas:Self has coached seven games against the Blue Devils since he arrived to Lawrence, holding a 4-3 record in those contests. His most notable win came in the 2018 Elite Eight, when the Jayhawks took down Duke in overtime to advance to San Antonio.
