Duke could play in the 2021 NCAA tournament if the Blue Devils are selected as an at-large team or a COVID-19 replacement team, according to ESPN's Rece Davis.
The Blue Devils were unable to play in their ACC tournament game against Florida State on Thursday after a positive COVID-19 test within the program. Following the positive test, Duke athletic director Kevin Whites said in a statement that the program not being able to compete was the "end" of the Blue Devils' season.
"This will end our 2020–21 season," White said. "We wish every team still playing college basketball good health and the very best during the next few weeks.
