All three Duke assistant coaches were players on Duke programs that claimed Maui titles under Coach K Chris Carrawell and Nate James with the 1997 team and Jon Scheyer with the 2007 squad. BESSER BIKES COAST TO COAST Senior Brennan Besser completed a 3,500-mile bike trip from Seattle to New York City in late July as he looks to raise $1 million for Walk On America. Besser founded the Walk On America campaign to raise money and awareness of the Intellectual and Developmental Disability (IDD) community. Brennan and his sister Rachel were compelled to action by the challenges faced every day by their sister Jacqueline, who is non-verbal. Nearly $350,000 has been raised thus far as Besser rolled into New York City in August to complete his 3,553-mile, 64-day trek. He stopped at nearly 50 cities, meeting fans and conducting basketball clinics over his two-month adventure from coast to coast. DUKE TIES SCHOOL S DRAFT RECORD Duke matched a program record with four selections during the 2018 NBA Draft, including two of the top seven picks and three first-round selections. Freshman Marvin Bagley III went second overall to Sacramento, classmate Wendell Carter Jr. went seventh to Chicago, senior Grayson Allen was the 21st pick by Utah, and freshman Gary Trent Jr. went in the second round to Portland. The Blue Devils now boast 44 all-time first-round picks the third-best total in history. Bagley and Carter in the lottery gives head coach Mike Krzyzewski 25 lottery selections extending the record for most lottery picks for a school and coach. Duke has boasted a top-3 pick in each of the last five NBA Drafts, surpassing the record of four straight by UCLA between 1974 and 1977. Going undrafted, but showing well in the NBA Combine and the NBA Summer League for Houston, Duval inked a two-way contract with Milwaukee. Duke has 25 former players on active NBA rosters -- the most of any team in a single season in the history of the ACC.

Since his enshrinement in Springfield, Mass., Krzyzewski has also been inducted into the Army Sports Hall of Fame (2009), the Chicagoland Sports Hall of Fame (2010) and the Duke Athletics Hall of Fame (2011).

Coach K was 24-0 in the Olympics as head coach of the USMNT and his time at the helm ended with the team in the midst of a National Team-record 76-game winning streak that began in 2006.
