After a heartbreaking defeat in the Final Four last season, Duke University still has not won a national title without Mike Krzyzewski (Coach K) at the helm. The Blue Devils are looking to finally make it happen in 2025. Read on to learn where to watch Duke basketball games live without cable.

Despite a lack of championship wins, Jon Scheyer's first three years as head basketball coach have been far from disappointing. Under Scheyer, the Duke Blue Devils are 89-22 with two ACC tournament championships, an Elite Eight appearance, and a Final Four berth.
As usual, this season will feature a lot of new faces for Duke. The headliner is forward Cameron Boozer, son of NBA All-Star Carlos Boozer. Cameron is as coordinated as he is athletic, with a rare blend of size, skill, and basketball IQ. At 6'9", he can dribble, shoot, pass, and defend multiple positions. The freshman has a chance to be selected first overall in the NBA Draft.
Rounding out Duke's projected starting lineup are two returning guards in Caleb Foster and Isaiah Evans, a top-15 recruit in Nikolas Khamenia, and a sophomore center in Patrick Ngongba II. Dame Sarr is another player to watch for the Blue Devils this season. A raw but wildly gifted athlete, Sarr is a 6'8" wing who showed flashes of brilliance in limited minutes of international play before coming to Duke. Sarr profiles as a lottery pick in the NBA due to his rare measurables and high athletic upside. Although he's expected to start the season on the bench, he could play himself into Duke's starting lineup before the year is through. Duke's reserves include other talented players like Cayden Boozer (Cameron's twin brother), Maliq Brown, Sebastian Wilkins, and Darren Harris.
There's a lot of roster turnover from 2024's Final Four team, but Duke is as dangerous as ever, and they enter 2025 as the favorites in the ACC. You can watch every game on the Duke basketball schedule live without cable on Fubo, Sling TV, Hulu + Live TV, and more. Exact team schedules are decided by networks during the season and are subject to change. Blackout restrictions may apply depending on your location.
