Duke is promoting its two assistant coaches after the departure of associate head coach Jeff Capel III.
Capel agreed to be Pittsburgh's head coach on Tuesday afternoon. His departure created a void, specifically with recruiting. He has helped the Blue Devils land the No. 1 recruiting classes in four of the past five seasons.
Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski announced Tuesday night that he had promoted assistant coaches Nate James and Jon Scheyer to associate head coach roles.
James just completed his 11th season on the Blue Devils' staff. He has been assistant coach for the last eight years.
