Duke men's basketball coach Jon Scheyer has agreed to a six-year contract extension that will take him through the 2028-29 season, sources told ESPN on Friday.
Scheyer's new deal comes on the heels of a No. 2 ranking in the preseason Associated Press poll and a debut season as coach that included an ACC tournament championship and a 27-9 record.
Scheyer, 36, replaced the legendary Mike Krzyzewski, whose retirement cleared the way for Scheyer's promotion to head coach in 2022.
Duke, which has had back-to-back No. 1 national recruiting classes under Scheyer, is hosting the No. 1 overall player in the class of 2024, forward Cooper Flagg of Maine, this weekend in Durham.
