  • #724 - Continuity Confirmed: Duke Fends Off The Transfer Portal
    2025/04/23
    We’re back with Episode 724, and Scott Rich is back to join Donald as they discuss the close of the transfer portal entry deadline! The portal is closed to new entrants, and Jon Scheyer has successfully kept some continuity on the roster. Isaiah Evans, Maliq Brown, Darren Harris, and Patrick Ngongba will all be back with the Duke Blue Devils next season, and we discuss how welcome a sight that is. In a world where the portal affects everyone, Duke is one of the few power conference teams to not lose any of their main rotation players to the portal. While Duke could look to add a final piece or two, the certain thing is that Scheyer wanted continuity...and he got it. After the break, the two men from Michigan discuss the report that Duke could be playing Michigan in February 2026 in DC. Of course, Donald is happy about the Blue Devils being down the street from him, but we look at the potential matchup and how Jon Scheyer is trying to test his guys with these marquee games. We close with a salute to the life of Mike Patrick, who passed away at age 80 a few days ago. Make sure you’re following us!

  • #723 - Cooper Flagg and Tyrese Proctor depart for the NBA
    2025/04/21
    Episode 723 is a sad one as we say goodbye to three Duke Blue Devils who are either headed to the NBA or entering the transfer portal as a grad transfer. Jordan Brenner from the Underdogs Podcast joins Donald with Jason still out on international duty. The big story is Cooper Flagg officially announcing that he is leaving Duke for the NBA, where he will presumably be the #1 pick in the NBA Draft in June. We look back at his historic year where he was the best player in college basketball and was just a ton of fun to watch. Jordan and Donald discuss which teams could be a good or intriguing fit for Cooper as he heads to the next level. We also touch on Tyrese Proctor declaring for the NBA Draft. He had a monster year for Duke, a redemption year for the Aussie assassin. He is a player who NBA teams really do need and we look forward to seeing who decides to take him. The 3 and D attributes only tell some of the tale about how he can impact a franchise. Finally, Stanley Borden will graduate from Duke next month, and he has decided to take a graduate year somewhere else. Despite not scoring a point for Duke, he was a fan favorite, and we show him some love as he departs the program to try and get some playing time in his final year of eligibility.

    2025/04/18
    We’re back with Episode 722 as we learned the other day that Caleb Foster will be back with the Duke Blue Devils next season! Caleb Foster announcement that he is coming back for his junior season at Duke has everyone excited. Donald is once again joined by Scott Rich to discuss what it means for next year’s team, and we hear from Jason as he’s on his travels through Japan. We get into his struggles this season and how he can use a full offseason to improve and have a terrific junior season. After the break, we get to the sad as Shelton Henderson announced late Thursday night that he will decommit from Duke. Donald and Scott discuss what it could mean in the form of what’s coming and also dispel some of the rumors out there about why Shelton ultimately decided to go in a different direction.

  • #721 - Kon Departs and Sion Earns Academic All-American Honors
    2025/04/17
    We return with Episode 721 as we discuss Kon Knueppel declaring for the NBA Draft and Sion James’ academic honors. With Jason flying the friendly skies, Scott Rich is back to join Donald as they take a look back at Kon II’s incredible season in a Duke uniform. The kid that was very much overlooked by many is set to be a likely top 10 pick when the NBA Draft takes place in June. We’re so excited for him and so proud at how he left a legacy in his one season in Durham. After the break, we turn to Sion James, who was named an Academic All-American the other day. We’re just so lucky to have had Sion James at Duke, and he (along with Kon) will be the part of the blueprint of the program for years to come. He was a star on the court, but he was even better off the court and in the community. Make sure you’re following us!

  • DBR Bites #103 - WHAT IF Cooper and Kon come back??!?!
    2025/04/15
    The Duke Basketball Roundup wants to be very, very clear -- we do not have any inside intel to think this is real but... What if Cooper and Kon decided the loss to Houston just left such a bad taste in their mouth that they wanted to come back for another year? The Athletic's Jordan Brenner joins us for a chat about the kind of thought process that could be happening here for the Duke superstars. Why haven't they declared for the NBA Draft yet and what dominoes would fall into place if they did the unthinkable and decided to run it back for another year? This episode could be dated at any moment. It probably has not basis in reality... but it sure is fun to think about, isn't it? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • #720 - Duke On Display At Nike Hoops Summit
    2025/04/13
    We are back with Episode 720 as we recap the Nike Hoops Summit that took place this weekend in Portland! Cameron Boozer, Cayden Boozer, and Nik Khamenia (last name pronounced with a silent K) played on Team USA in the men’s game, and each of them shined thoughout the week. The biggest star was Cameron Boozer, who lit up the stat sheet and dominated throughout the game. We get into each of the players and how they did and how excited we are to see them in Duke Blue. We also give some updates on Nate Ament’s recruitment and some of the rumblings we’ve heard about what could be affecting his announcement. Of course, we also discuss Emilee Skinner’s performance in the women’s game and how she fits into Kara Lawson’s squad for next year. After the break, we take a look at Vegas, where Duke is the early favorite to win it all in 2026. We discuss some of the other teams, including a couple in the ACC, who are getting some buzz.

  • #718 - It had to end... but not like this!
    2025/04/07
    It is with a heavy heart that the Duke Basketball Roundup bids farewell to the 2024-25 Blue Devil team. A stunning 70-67 loss to Houston has all of us in a funk it not outright depressed. A team that seemed fated to cut down the nets on Monday instead finds itself wondering what went wrong in the fateful final few minutes where a sizeable lead evaporated. Jason and Donald try to make sense of all of it. They talk about what happened and what the causes of it may have been; they remind us all that the journey is more than the destination; and they reflect on the many great moments of joy this team brought us. Still it all just feels wrong, it feels unfair. Join the DBR Podcast as they try to process the end of a very special season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
