Duke basketball’s Jeremy Roach to leave Blue Devils, enter transfer portal

[ad_1]

Jeremy Roach’s time with Duke basketball is done.

After four seasons with the Blue Devils, including two as a captain, Roach announced Tuesday his plans to enter the transfer portal and use his fifth year of eligibility elsewhere.

During his time in Durham, Roach helped Duke win ACC regular-season and ACC Tournament championships and advance to the Final Four. He was one of the final ties to former coach Mike Krzyzewski’s last Duke team.

Roach averaged 11.3 points, 3.1 assists and 2.4 rebounds per game as a Blue Devil. He also shot 35.5% from 3-point range. As a senior, Roach put together his best season yet, averaging 14 points on 42.9% shooting from beyond the arc, with 3.3 assists per game.

With guards Tyrese Proctor and Caleb Foster announcing their decisions to return, it seemed likely Roach would be finding a new home.

The Blue Devils also have the top-ranked recruiting class, headlined by Cooper Flagg, set to join head coach Jon Scheyer’s 2024-25 roster.
