THE SEASON SYNOPSIS

The 2012-13 Duke basketball squad rivals any of Coach K’s 40 in terms of senior leadership. Mason Plumlee, Seth Curry, and Ryan Kelly were relentless and poised in their efforts. They truly embraced the goal to direct a group of Blue Devils to the Final Four.

Had they not faced eventual champion Louisville in the Elite Eight, that dream might have come true. Overachievers. Currently, they remain the last bunch in Durham to have not included a one-and-done.
