- On March 14, 2026, Duke, coached by Jon Scheyer, defeated Virginia 74-70 to win the ACC Tournament, marking their second consecutive title.
- Entering the week, Duke was without starters Caleb Foster and Patrick Ngongba II, and after a shaky Thursday against Florida State, doubts about the No. 1 team vanished three days later.

- Defensive standout Ugonna Onyenso set an ACC Tournament block record with 21 blocks, while Cameron Boozer shot 3-of-17 but earned MVP honors and said 'I did get frustrated'.
