Draven Duncan Joins Pomona College Basketball, Continuing Family Legacy

The son of NBA legend Tim Duncan will play under coach Gregg Popovich at Pomona-Pitzer, bringing his San Antonio pedigree to California.

Draven Duncan, the son of NBA legend Tim Duncan, has begun his college basketball journey at Pomona College in California, bringing a distinctive San Antonio pedigree to the West Coast program.

During his high school years at TMI Episcopal, Duncan earned TAPPS 6A Second Team All‑District honors in his final two seasons, helped the team finish as runners‑up in the 2025–26 state championship game, and was recognized twice with TAPPS 6A Academic All‑State accolades. He also belongs to the National Honor Society and the National Spanish Honor Society.

Listed as a guard/forward on the Pomona‑Pitzer men’s basketball roster, Duncan is still exploring his academic focus, with his major remaining undecided as he adjusts to collegiate life.

The move also places him under the tutelage of Gregg Popovich, the Hall‑of‑Fame‑caliber coach who once guided Tim Duncan and now oversees the next generation of Duncan talent at Pomona‑Pitzer.

A Family Legacy Takes New Shape

While the Duncan name is synonymous with NBA excellence, Draven’s path reflects a blend of athletic ambition and scholarly curiosity, as he navigates the expectations that come with his lineage while carving out his own identity on the court.
