CHARLOTTE — Top-seeded Duke’s playing rotation is down to seven players for the ACC Tournament with injuries to starters Caleb Foster and Patrick Ngongba.
But the Blue Devils’ roster is actually growing.
Duke elevated senior practice player Brock Davis, a 6-foot-4 guard/forward, to its active roster for the ACC Tournament. Davis is listed in the team’s game notes for the tournament, though he doesn’t appear on Duke’s team roster on its website.
Davis, who wears No. 50, didn’t play in Duke’s 80-79 victory over Florida State, but his presence on the bench caused a stir on social media. Duke (30-2) plays fifth-seeded Clemson (24-9) in Friday’s ACC Tournament semifinals at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte.

Davis, who is from Washington, D.C., has ties to the Duke program. His father Brian played at Duke from 1988 to 1992 and was a key contributor on Duke’s 1991 and 1992 NCAA title teams.
Brian Davis played 141 games (45 starts) and averaged 6.8 points per game in his career. As a senior starter in 1991-92, Davis averaged 11.2 points per game in 30.9 minutes per game and was drafted in the second round of the 1992 NBA Draft.
