The Duquesne Dukes represent Duquesne University in college basketball. The team, which started in 1914, has only ever played in NCAA Division I and has had five appearances in the NCAA Tournament. The Dukes play in the Atlantic 10 Conference, of which they have been members since 1976. As of January 7, 2020, the head basketball coach is Keith Dambrot.
The Dukes men's basketball team has had great success over the years, playing twice in national championship games in the 1950s and winning the National Invitation Tournament championship in 1955. Duquesne also emerged victorious in the 1976–77 Eastern Collegiate Basketball League championship and 1979–80 and 1980–81 Eastern Athletic Association regular season co-championships. The Associated Press ranked Duquesne as the No. 1 college basketball team in the country for two consecutive weeks during the 1953-54 season.
Duquesne is the only school to have back-to-back first overall picks in the National Basketball Association Draft. The Dukes men's basketball program can also claim the first African-American player selected in an NBA draft.
