Durham, N.C. —

There’s a brand-new reason for smiles around Cameron Indoor Stadium this week — and it has nothing to do with basketball. Duke University head coach Jon Scheyer and his wife, Marcelle, have welcomed twin babies, a joyous announcement that has sent waves of excitement and celebration throughout the Blue Devil family.

The Scheyers shared the heartwarming news earlier this week, revealing that their home — already filled with energy, love, and laughter — has now doubled in joy. The arrival of the twins marks a beautiful new chapter in the couple’s lives, as well as a moment of pride and happiness for the Duke community that has embraced them as one of their own.

“Nothing compares to this feeling,” Scheyer said with a smile in a brief statement. “Our hearts are full, and we couldn’t be more grateful. It’s the biggest blessing we could ever ask for.”

Fans and former players quickly flooded social media with congratulatory messages, celebrating the milestone for the man who has led Duke with passion and purpose both on and off the court. One fan joked that Scheyer just landed his “two biggest recruits yet,” while others called the twins “the next generation of Blue Devils.”

Under Scheyer’s leadership, Duke basketball has continued to thrive — balancing the legacy of excellence left by Coach Mike Krzyzewski with a fresh, family-centered energy. This latest moment only strengthens the sense of connection between the program and its community. Many see Scheyer’s family as an embodiment of the values Duke stands for: commitment, unity, and heart.

Assistant coaches, players, and staff have also shared their excitement privately and online. “Coach has always been like a big brother to us,” one player commented. “Seeing him become a dad — twice over — just shows the kind of leader and person he is. We’re all so happy for him.”

The timing couldn’t be more perfect. As Duke prepares for another promising season, the arrival of the twins adds an extra layer of motivation and joy to the Blue Devils’ locker room. Scheyer, known for his calm demeanor and steady leadership, now takes on his newest and most rewarding challenge — fatherhood times two.

For the Scheyers, who have always cherished their close-knit family life, this moment represents more than just personal happiness. It’s a reminder that beyond the bright lights and roaring crowds, life’s greatest victories often happen quietly — at home, surrounded by love.

As fans continue to send gifts, messages, and well-wishes, one thing is certain: Cameron Nation has two new honorary members. The twins may be years away from dribbling a basketball, but they’ve already won the hearts of Blue Devil fans everywhere.

Two tiny Blue Devils are here — and with them, a double dose of joy for Duke, its coach, and the entire basketball family that proudly calls Durham home.
