With the 2023-24 season in the rearview mirror, it's time to reflect on the performances of the team's ten rotation players. At the beginning of the season, the members of the Duke Wisdom Network collaborated to create a 1-15 ranking of all of Duke's players. Then that list was updated mid-season, that time including just the primary top 10 players. Now, it's time to see if anything changed during the final stages of the season.
The first list was was all the way back in September, and the mid-season ranking was in January. Of course, this list will not include Jaden Schutt, who decided to redshirt prior to the start of the season, and Christian Reeves, who missed significant time with an injury as well.
The three walk-ons, or walk-on type players will be excluded as well, so no Neal Begovich, Spencer Hubbard or Stanley Borden.
The way this works is pretty simple. Three different members of the Duke Wisdom Network, including myself, ranked the players 1-10 and then their rankings were averaged to come up with the final ranks (each individual ballot will be listed at the end as well). The preseason rank, mid-season rank, as well as the trend up or down will be listed under each player's picture as well.
And even though only two of them are returning to Durham next season, without further ado, here's the Duke Wisdom end of season player rankings:
