Scrimmage photos: Kyrie Irving, Jayson Tatum and Paolo Banchero return to Duke

Photos from a scrimmage in Durham have surfaced online, spotlighting the return of several NBA stars to their old campus. Among them are Kyrie Irving, Jayson Tatum and Paolo Banchero, while the Duke program hinted it was putting together a highlight video of the top moments.

As Bleacher Report reports, the trio returned this week to the university where each played a single season: Irving in 2010–11, Tatum in 2016–17 and Banchero in 2021–22. In the shared footage, Irving is seen greeting legend and former coach Mike Krzyzewski, as well as current coach Jon Scheyer. Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. was also at the event, while former stars Cooper Flagg and Jared McCain had been spotted earlier in the week. According to RealGM, there are currently 23 former Duke players in the NBA.

The photos and the video tease underline the continued interest surrounding the Duke program and the bond its former players keep with the campus; Bleacher Report notes the content has drawn major attention on social media.
