After losing both Darren Harris and Nik Khamenia in the transfer portal, the Blue Devils are still eyeing additions to their roster before the 2026-27 season begins.

One area Duke is likely looking for improvements in would be perimeter shooting. Despite winning the ACC Tournament, the Blue Devils ranked 11th in three-point percentage at 34.7% per game.

To make matters worse, three of Duke's top-six most efficient three-point shooters are set to depart: Harris, Khamenia and Cameron Boozer, who is certain to declare for the NBA Draft.

For this reason, Duke could be after one of the top transfers available, 6-foot-8 forward Milan Momcilovic. Momcilovic led the country in three-point percentage last season, shooting 48.7%. This wasn't due to a small sample size either, as Momcilovic attempted 7.5 three-pointers per game for the Iowa State Cyclones.

While Momcilovic is likely to test the NBA Draft as well, he could be a great pickup for the Blue Devils if he decides to return to school.
