    DBR Bites #54 - More practice intel!
    Jun 29 2024
    The 2024-25 Duke Blue Devils are in the gym for summer workouts, and we have some intel from one of the practices courtesy of a listener! We discuss what we learned on DBR Bites Episode 54. Jason was able to speak to one of our listeners, who gave us some fantastic information about a practice they were allowed to watch. We go through each of the players and discuss what our listener saw from them. And there are some general insights on how the team looked and what some of the themes may be this season. One thing's for sure: we're going to learn a lot more about this team as the summer goes along! After the break, Cooper Flagg is leaving Duke to play for another team. That team: the USA Select team, which is a group of players who help the USA Basketball team prepare for the Olympics. Cooper's the only non-pro on the team and has made the team before playing a second of college basketball. It's a huge honor and we are excited at Cooper getting able to go up against some of the best players in the world and learn from them. Make sure you’re following us!

  • #636 - Jared McCain, Kyle Filipowski find out their NBA destinations

    #636 - Jared McCain, Kyle Filipowski find out their NBA destinations
    Jun 28 2024
    The NBA Draft has been completed, and we discuss where Jared McCain and Kyle Filipowski will begin their NBA careers on Episode 636! The NBA Draft was a 2-day affair this year, and we had to go through both days to learn where McCain and Flip ended up. Jared McCain was drafted 16th by the Philadelphia 76ers, and Jason and Donald are really happy about what could be a great situation for him in the Association. Jared could fit in not just with his shooting and rebounding ability, but with his personality and work ethic. We also discuss Kyle Filipowski, both on the court and off the court. He slips to the second round, eventually being drafted by the Utah Jazz with the 32nd pick. We discuss what happened pre-draft that could have caused him to slip out of the first round and be left in the green room after night 1. We also get into the stories that have come up about his current relationship and what we have heard about how it affected not just his draft stock, but his world. After the break, there were some Duke Blue Devils that will have new places to play in the NBA due to trades during the draft. We discuss where Wendell Moore and AJ Griffin will call home now with their trades to the Detroit Pistons and the Houston Rockets, respectfully. Make sure you’re following us!

    #635 - Jared McCain's NBA draft stock with Jay Bilas
    Jun 26 2024
    Time for part 2 of the DBR Podcast's NBA Draft preview with Jay Bilas. This time, we focus on Jared McCain, who has a great chance to be taken in the back end of the lottery after a season in which he showed he is one of the top few shooters in all of college basketball. Jason and Donald also get Jay's thoughts on the notion that the NCAA tournament will expand to add 4 or maybe 8 more teams. And last but not least, the DBR Podcast highlights some recent stats about Duke's media exposure in football and basketball. Can you guess where Duke falls on the list of most watched teams in the ACC in the two big revenue sports? We all know football is the king of the ratings and Duke isn't exactly a huge football draw, but you may be surprised where the Blue Devils land compared to the rest of the league.

    #634 - Video of the 24-25 Blue Devils in action!!
    Jun 24 2024
    There is no tradition quite like the DBR Podcast spending far too much time pouring over "raw, uncut" video of the Duke team playing a summer scrimmage. So, when the Duke social media team dropped its first heavily edited video of the summer, you just knew Jason and Donald would hop on a Duke Basketball Roundup podcast to chat about it. There is little question that Sion James and Kon Knueppel looked great in this video but there was plenty other stuff to notice and draw (wild) conclusions from. Duke has released the official roster so the podcast guys also spend some time talking about the size of this Duke team, one of the biggest teams in recent moment. And, after the break, we get to hear about Donald's long, personal relationship with a fast-rising recruit in the class of 2025 who just got a scholarship offer from Jon Scheyer.

    #633 - Jay Bilas "Flips" for the NBA Draft
    Jun 22 2024
    As we do every year around this time, the Duke Basketball Roundup welcomes Jay Bilas to the podcast to help us preview the NBA Draft. And, because this is a Duke-centric podcast, our primary focus is on the Dukies hoping to hear their names called nice and early on Draft night. Our conversation with Jay will be broken into two parts and in part one, we talk about Kyle Filipowski's draft prospects. Did he improve his stock by coming back to Duke for his soph campaign, where does Jay think Flip will get taken, and what role might Flip play for the team that drafts him? Plus, Jason and Donald ask Jay about the big news that JJ Redick has been hired as head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers. What does one former Dukie who works at ESPN think about another former Dukie who works at ESPN getting a head coaching job? Have a listen and find out. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • #632 - Brendan Marks Interview Part 2 - Reviewing the ACC’s offseason

    #632 - Brendan Marks Interview Part 2 - Reviewing the ACC’s offseason
    Jun 19 2024
    We’re honored to have Brenden Marks of The Athletic back to continue our conversation on Episode 632! On Part 1, we focused on Duke’s rebuilt roster, and on Part 2 of our interview, we expand our scope to the other 17 teams in the ACC. Marks discusses how some of the teams did in the transfer portal, with some of the teams that got much better and some of the teams that he felt missed an opportunity to improve. We discuss some of UNC’s issues with recruiting a big man and how the changing landscape of NIL has affected how teams recruit new players. We finally end with some of the players coming back that could help their teams and which teams to watch as they try to rise to the top half of the conference standings next season. After we say goodbye to Brendan Marks, Jason and Donald go into further discussion on several points that arose during the interview. Needless to say, we could have stayed on for a couple more hours with Brendan and not fully discussed every facet of roster construction, but we’re grateful that he was able to share so much knowledge not just on the team we follow religiously but also the rest of the conference.

    There were tears of joy on the floor of the TD Garden last night as Jayson Tatum reached the pinnacle of basketball greatness, leading his Boston Celtics to a world championship. The Duke Basketball Roundup has all the stats and info about Tatum's remarkable performance and what it means for his place among the Duke greats to have played in the NBA. And, of course, the guys also have comments about all the other Dukies connected to the NBA finals including Kyrie, Lively, Amile, and even Steve Pagliuca. After the break, the DBR Podcast takes a moment to celebrate some of the greatest Duke athletes of all time, the newest inductees to the Duke Athletics Hall of Fame. Included among them are a fencer, a diver, a 3-time national champion in golf, a couple football players, a father-son lacrosse duo, and two of the best men's and women's basketball players to ever wear a Duke blue uniform.

  • #631 - Brendan Marks Interview Part 1 - Duke’s rebuilt roster

    #631 - Brendan Marks Interview Part 1 - Duke’s rebuilt roster
    Jun 14 2024
    The Duke Blue Devils 2024-25 roster is rebuilt, and now they’re in the lab to gel into a team this summer. As they do so, we look back at how Duke did in the transfer portal and what we can expect from the team next season. On Episode 631, we welcome back Brendan Marks of The Athletic for an incredible interview that is broken down into two parts. This episode focuses on Part 1 of our interview, in which Marks helps us understand more about how this roster was constructed. We start with the transfer portal and how Duke did in relation to the rest of the conference at filling the holes that the roster had. This is a pivotal year for Duke, and Marks believes that the portal additions will help Duke in so many ways. We then focus on some of the freshmen coming in as well as where the main returnees - Tyrese Proctor and Caleb Foster - fit into the mix. This team will be built around Cooper Flagg, but you won’t want to miss what Brendan thinks of the potential starting 5 - competition may drive who gets some of these spots! We will be back in your feeds early next week to give you Part 2 of our interview with Brendan Marks, taking a look at the ACC as a whole and how the other 17 teams (yes, we gotta get used to that) are looking as we enter the summer months.
