We asked and you answered. We put you in control and this is what you did. Today Jason and Donald present the final episode of our look at the Duke Fan Survey that we launched about a month ago. Our final batch of questions have to do with NIL, One and Done, and the Transfer Portal. Have these seismic changes to college basketball changed how you feel about the sport? If you would change them, what would you change? Do you think Du...

It’s not a bad thing at all, and we discuss why it’s okay that he’s getting some rest. We a...

For the final preview of the NBA Draft, the Duke Basketball Roundup and Jay Bilas dive into Cooper Flagg, widely heralded as perhaps the most complete college player to enter the draft in decades. We don't get into a discussion of whether he will go #1, that is a foregone conclusion, but we do dive into whether Dallas should even begin to consider trading the pick for an established NBA superstar.
After the break, is he Kon 2.0? T...

We continue our NBA Draft previews on Episode 733 as Jay Bilas helps us analyze Khaman Maluach’s potential in the NBA!
ManMan is a player that could go as high as 3rd in the draft or as low as the end of the lottery, but no one doubts his abilities on defense. Jay thinks the real upside comes on offense, where may think that if he can continue to add to his game, he will be a force for years to come. After Jay’s comments and predi...

There's a whole bunch of stuff to talk about on the latest episode of the Duke Basketball Roundup.
We begin with a wild 24 hours for Duke baseball... 24 hours that kinda suck but also kinda show how far the program has come.
From there we pay tribute to Coach Will Stephens, the most important part of the men's basketball team that casual fans have never heard of.
But our main topic comes after the break... NIL. The House Settle...

Jason received some tips about how some of the Duke players did in a practice done behind closed doors, so he and Donald go through some of the information we receive...

The Duke Basketball Roundup rarely tries to break news but when our sources told us about this piece of info, we just had to share it. It is not yet confirmed yet, but we have learned that Tyler Thornton is joining the Duke staff as an assistant coach. It is so exciting to be bringing a former captain back and to get a guy who gave it 100% every single time he stepped on the floor. Time to cue up that Kansas game tape!
