Despite being a rarely utilized reserve under third-year head coach Jon Scheyer, Darren Harris, a longtime Duke basketball fan, surely relished his time at the Blue Devils’ Cameron Indoor Stadium last season. Without a doubt, the 6-foot-6, 203-pound shooting guard from Herndon, Virginia, intends to return to the renowned collegiate basketball arena for his home games the next season.
Harris informed reporters that he fully intended to remain on the 2025–26 Duke basketball squad after the powerful 2024–25 Blue Devils’ devastating Final Four defeat to the fellow No. 1 seed Houston Cougars in San Antonio’s Alamodome on April 5.
Additionally, he further solidified that choice on Monday night by sharing the following photos from this week’s individual offseason exercise in Cameron:
As a Duke basketball freshman, Harris, a former four-star recruit who won several 3-point competitions as a prep, played in 21 games but usually only heard his number late in overwhelming Blue Devil victories.
In just 6.1 minutes per game, he averaged 2.0 points and 1.1 rebounds while shooting 36.6 percent from the field, 22.7 percent from outside the arc, and 50.0 percent from the free throw line.
