Awards and honors

Duke Blue Devils became the first team to be seeded #1 in the NCAA tournament for five straight seasons.
The team finished the regular season ranked #1 in the AP Poll for the fourth straight year.
Jason Williams was a National Player of the Year winner for the second straight year, but oddly enough didn't win ACC Player of the Year in either 2000–01 or 2001–02. Shane Battier and Joseph Forte shared the award in '01 and Maryland's Juan Dixon won it in '02.
