In a critical decision for their upcoming season, Duke Basketball has successfully re-signed former center Christian Reeves, ensuring the 7-foot-2 big man will stay with the Blue Devils after his brief tenure at Clemson. This move is crucial for head coach Jon Scheyer, who recognizes the importance of retaining experienced frontcourt depth, especially with the team’s current roster needs.
Reeves, a three-star recruit who originally joined Duke, faced limited playing time and battled injuries during his first years under Scheyer. After transferring to Clemson for the 2024 season, Reeves played a supporting role, averaging 1.2 points and 1.5 rebounds in 29 games. Despite his modest statistics, his size and potential make him a valuable asset for the Blue Devils.
By re-signing Reeves, Duke secures much-needed depth in the post and stabilizes their frontcourt heading into the future. This move adds significant strength to their already powerful recruiting class and provides crucial depth to an already competitive program.
With this decision, Duke reinforces their roster and sets their sights on a stronger NCAA run in the coming seasons. Fans and analysts will be keeping a close eye on how Reeves contributes to the team’s success moving forward.
