Duke Men’s Basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski says there is no higher honor for the Blue Devils than having your basketball jersey and number retired. The women’s basketball program recently announced that a former player will be receiving that honor, with the jersey of former center Elizabeth Williams joining the Duke legends in the rafters of Cameron Indoor Stadium this season.
Williams had a dominant career with the Blue Devils averaging 14.4 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 3.1 blocks per game. She is the first player in conference history to record at least 1,900 points, 1,000 rebounds, and 400 blocks and be named a four-time AP All-American.
