In this story:

As of this year's McDonald's All-American Boys Game rosters released on Tuesday, 1,106 high school seniors have earned the distinction since its inception in 1977. Among those, 90 have been Duke basketball names, the most for any program and 8.1 percent of the total.

And the last time no eventual Blue Devils were on one of the rosters was in 1984. That's 39 years straight with at least one Duke basketball player, which is also a national record.

The following list, which will be updated here every year, is in chronological order from Duke's first McDonald's All-American, Gene Banks, to the most recent (career points as a Blue Devil in parentheses).
