Duke basketball: Top 10 individual fantasy seasons under Coach K
Top Duke basketball fantasy players since 1981: Danny Ferry, 1988-89
The single best statistical season by any Blue Devil in the Coach K era by my metric scoring was 1988-89. During that year, Danny Ferry (appearing for the second time on this list), who was a Naismith Award winner and two-time ACC Player of the Year, scored 22.6 points per game, brought down 7.4 rebounds per game, and added 4.7 assists per game.
Ferry also nabbed 1.6 steals per game and blocked 0.6 shots per game during his final season under Mike Krzyzewski, and he turned the basketball over 3.3 times per game.
