Cameron Boozer Selected Third Overall by Memphis

BROOKLYN, N.Y. - Duke continued its historic run in the NBA Draft on Tuesday night at Barclays Center, as Cameron Boozer was selected No. 3 overall by the Memphis Grizzlies.

Boozer represents Duke's 34th lottery pick, more than any other school in NBA Draft history.

With Boozer selected third overall and Cooper Flagg chosen No. 1 overall by Dallas in 2025, Duke became the only school since 2007 to produce top-three picks in consecutive NBA Drafts. The Blue Devils have accomplished the feat six times since 2015.

The Blue Devils' 19 top-three picks are the most in NBA Draft history, and exceed the combined total of the next two schools, UCLA (10) and Kentucky (8).

Duke head coach Jon Scheyer has now produced 10 NBA Draft selections, including seven first-round picks, in his first four seasons at the helm, more than any other program during that span. Since Scheyer joined the coaching staff in 2013-14, Duke has produced 36 draft picks, including 27 first-round selections.

Duke's 117 all-time NBA Draft selections rank among the most in college basketball history and make the Blue Devils one of just four programs to surpass the 100-pick milestone. In the past 10 years, Duke tops the country with 30 selections.
