The Duke basketball roster has remained stagnant since the season ended, leaving fans searching for clues about the next steps for its players. Freshman wing Isaiah Evans has emerged as a popular player, and his recent actions have sparked speculation about his future with the Blue Devils.
Evans’ Options
Evans has three options available to him: return to Duke for his sophomore season, declare for the NBA Draft, or enter the transfer portal. The freshman was an electric scorer off the bench for the Blue Devils this year, averaging 6.8 points per game while shooting 41.6% from 3-point range.
Cryptic Message
Evans recently posted a photo of himself celebrating a 3-pointer on his Instagram story, which has been interpreted by some as a sign that he might return to Durham for another season. He also posted a photo dump recapping his year at Duke after the team’s elimination from the NCAA Tournament.
Implications for Duke
The decision of Evans, along with Tyrese Proctor and Caleb Foster, will be crucial for Jon Scheyer and the Blue Devils’ future. Meanwhile, Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel, and Khaman Maluach are expected to declare for the NBA Draft.
New Talent on the Horizon
Duke’s top-ranked recruiting class, featuring twin brothers Cameron and Cayden Boozer, will be joining the team this summer. Roster news is expected this week from the Blue Devils, and fans will be closely watching for updates on Evans and other key players.
What’s Next for Evans?
While Evans’ intentions remain unclear, his recent actions have sparked hope among fans that he might return to Duke. The Blue Devils will be hoping for clarity soon surrounding their talented freshman wing.
