Duke Guard Kon Knueppel announced on Wednesday for 2025 NBA draft and will abandon its remaining suitability.
The 6 -meter first class student received an average of 14.4 points and hit 40.7 percent of the 3 -point range in 39 games last season.
The second leader behind Blue Devils’s first -year student was a scorer and the number 1 election envisaged Cooper Flagg.
Knueppel made the ACC All-Freshman team and All-ACC second team and helped Duke (35-4) to reach Final Four.
When the Flagg was injured, the Knueppel took over and the ACC tournament MVP won the honor of MVP with 63 points, 17 rebounds and 14 assists in three games.
19-year-old Knueppel ranks 8th in ESPN projections for the NBA draft planned in New York on June 25-26.
