So I went to the following site where I go to to keep track of Duke's roster
https://verbalcommits.com/schools/duke
I then saw that Theo John and Bates Jones were listed under "Seniors" because everyone is given an extra year of eligibility. That would put them in the same class as Jordan Goldwire but also Marvin Bagley, Wendell Carter, Gary Trent, Trevon Duval...
I removed the players that transferred but kept the players that turned pro.
Quite an array of talent...perhaps enough for two top 10 teams
Trevon Duval(PRO)
Tre Jones(PRO)
Jeremy Roach
D.J. Steward(PRO)
Gary Trent, Jr.(PRO)
Rowan 'R.J.' Barrett, Jr.(PRO)
Cameron 'Cam' Reddish(PRO)
Cassius Stanley(PRO)
Jalen Johnson(PRO)
Trevor Keels(VC)
Adrian 'A.J.' Griffin, Jr.(LOI)
Zion Williamson(PRO)
Joey Baker
Matthew Hurt(PRO)
Wendell Moore, Jr.
Henry Coleman III
Wendell Carter, Jr.(PRO)
Marvin Bagley III(PRO)
Theo John(VC)
Bates Jones(VC)
Paolo Banchero(LOI)
Vernon Carey, Jr.(PRO)
Mark Williams
Largely off topic but that link mentions Cason Pierce as a rising sophomore walk-on. Googling it, he committed last spring as a preferred walk-on for this past season. What happened to him? Did he decide not to be in the basketball bubble? Will he be on the team this coming year? I'm not losing a lot of sleep over Cason Pierce but just curious. Also, I assume Buckmire is not coming back for his fifth year?
Dunno, but appears Pierce is at Duke still. Perhaps his stats and comp sci courses took over...
As for Buck, not 100% sure either his plan for next year, but perhaps he's moving on with life as well with his bio major/chem minor and Duke degree in hand. At one point, he was pre-med so perhaps Medical School is next? Although I think he may have also been enrolled in Pratt and that changed, so maybe his career goals changed too (although he stuck with bio). He wrote a piece reflecting on his time at Duke here:

Edit: Buck's Twitter feed said pre-med on a tweet yesterday, so I'd imagine that's next on the journey. I believe his father is a surgeon (also a Duke athlete on the NCAA championship soccer team).
