Although Harris, a 6-foot-5, 195-pound guard from Herndon, Virginia, played a limited role during his freshman year—averaging just 6.1 minutes per game over 21 appearances for a 35-4 Final Four squad—his aspirations clearly reach far beyond the stat sheet. The former four-star recruit, ranked No. 39 nationally in the 2024 class (247Sports Composite), totaled 43 points and connected on just five 3-pointers. Still, expectations are high for a breakout sophomore season as Harris looks to elevate his production and role within the 2025-26 Blue Devil lineup.
Harris’ homage to Redick isn’t just fan admiration—it’s a declaration of the kind of player he aspires to become. Redick, the all-time leading scorer in Duke history with 2,769 points and an unmatched 457 career three-pointers, left behind a legacy marked by elite shooting and fiery competitiveness. The Virginia native’s iconic No. 4 jersey now hangs from the rafters of Cameron Indoor Stadium, and he is currently entering his second season as head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers.
For Harris, emulating Redick means more than just hitting shots—it’s about embodying the heart and heritage of Duke basketball. And if his confidence and development match his admiration, Duke fans may witness a new sharpshooting chapter unfolding in Durham.
