Duke basketball: Ranking Duke's top 5 ACC games after full conference schedule release

The Atlantic Coast Conference released the full conference schedule for the 2025–26 men's basketball season, so the Duke basketball program now knows all of its opponents in conference and most of the dates for each contest. Now, let's rank the Blue Devils' top five ACC games for this upcoming season. The conference returned to an 18-game slate for the first time since 2018-19. Each team has a primary partner that it will play twice a season, with Duke's being North Carolina, along with a variable partner. This is a school that each program will play twice in a given season, but they switch each year.
