The Duke Blue Devils are back on the road tonight when they head to Raleigh to take on the NC State Wolfpack, and we prepare for the game on Episode 604. Duke has had this game circled all season thanks to last season's terrible loss at PNC Arena where they just did not show up to play. They want to turn it around, and as they enter the final week of the regular season, this is a game they want to come out with fire and intensity. Donald and Jason break down the Wolfpack, who they've played and how they've played. Their metrics show a team that's been middle of the road all season, but many of their players are good enough to take a good team out. After the break, the 2024-25 ACC opponents list was released over the weekend, and we take a minute to review who Duke will see in Cameron and on the road next season. Jason and Donald are especially happy that Duke will be coming to places that will allow them to see our beloved Blue Devils in person. Make sure you’re following us!

Virginia has been one of the most formidable defensive teams in college basketball for more than a decade. Duke utterly dismantled that defense on Saturday night in Cameron, making it look easy on their way to 40 first half points. Meanwhile, the Duke D was forcing Virginia into bad shot after bad shot and the Cavs weren't hitting hardly any of them. The Duke Basketball Roundup takes great pleasure in recapping this contest for all of you. From Tyrese Proctor's trickiness to Kyle Filipowski's windmill dunks to Sean Stewart's eye-popping athleticism, this game had a little bit of everything for Duke fans as it appears Jon Scheyer is well on his way to having another Duke team that peaks at the right time of the season.

Tony Bennett's Virginia Cavaliers always present an unique challenge for Duke. An absolutely elite defensive team that often has a weak offense. This year is no exception. If anything, the offense may be worse than usual. Still, you need to know just what they are going to throw at you and the Duke Basketball Roundup is here to give you, our loyal listeners, all the details you need. After the break, Jason and Donald turn their attention for a few moments to the college football playoff, and word that it may be ready to expand again. What is driving this ever bigger playoff push (other than money) the DBR pod gang has some ideas.

The Duke Blue Devils took care of business against the Louisville Cardinals, and we recap the game on Episode 601! Duke made easy work of the Cards, winning by 25 in a game that really was over early in the 2nd half. Jason and Donald hit the headlines and discuss the good in this game. In a game that was sloppy at times, the defense was still very good on the evening. They rebounded amazingly well and won almost every positive statistical category. We then get into the individual players, and there was a lot of love shown for guys like Jeremy Roach, Tyrese Proctor, Sean Stewart, and even Spencer Hubbard. After the break, we get into some of the things to improve from this game, and spoiler: turnovers and free throws were the bulk of this discussion. We’ll be back in your feeds again really soon to preview Saturday’s game against UVA. Make sure you’re following us!

We’re back with DBR Bites Episode #38, where we preview the Duke Blue Devils’ upcoming game against the Louisville Cardinals. Duke hopes to get back to their winning ways against a Louisville team that has not been good all season. Jason and Donald go through what they’ve done since they last played back on January 23rd and some of the things that they do well. Duke will obviously have some question marks depending on whether Kyle Filipowski and Caleb Foster are healthy enough to play, but this is a game that Duke should use to take care of business and win. After the break, we get into the 2025 NBA mock drafts, and there are some interesting names on the list. We end with a brief look at one AP pollster’s “mistake” of putting Arizona State into his top 25.

The Duke Basketball Roundup has reached 600 total episodes and you know what that means. If it has two zeros on the end, then Kenny "The Dawg" Denard must be a part of it! Jason and Donald are thrilled to welcome Kenny back for more of his recollections of his time at Duke as well as his assessment of the current state of the team and the entire college basketball landscape. And, as a special bonus, Sam Klein joins us as well to celebrate this momentous episode. Our conversation with Kenny includes a never-before-told story about a scandalous "Red Sparrow" trick he used to help Duke win games back in the day. It also takes a more serious turn as we ask Kenny to reflect on his longtime friendship with the recently departed Lefty Dreisell. It is worth noting that this interview was recorded last week, before the game against Wake Forest and the court storming incident that marred the end of that contest. So, if you think this pod avoids talking about the elephant in the room, well... the elephant wasn't even there when this conversation happened.

With the outrage over the court storming incident fading a little bit, the Duke Basketball Roundup takes a few moments to look back on the actual game, which was a heck of a battle between the Blue Devils and Wake Forest. Both teams were playing at a high level and no one deserved to lose. Jason and Donald break down all the action on both ends of the floor with special praise for Duke big men Kyle Filipowski and Ryan Young, who were each outstanding in this contest. After the break, the DBR guys have some additional comments on the dangerous court storming at the conclusion of the contest. Have a listen as Jason is outraged at some of the comments by Wake Forest coach Steve Forbes. You may not be surprised to see that this episode carries an "explicit" rating as the DBR Podcast crew have some choice words for the Wake fans and administration. By the way, the DBR Podcast is thrilled to welcome MyBookie to our sponsor network.

We’re going to talk about it on DBR Bites #37. The Duke Blue Devils lost to Wake Forest 83-79, but the biggest story is what occurred as the game ended. Wake’s fans stormed the court, hurting Kyle Filipowski in the process. Filipowski got hurt bad enough that he needed to be helped off the court by several members of the Duke team, including Jon Scheyer. We’ve learned he hurt his knee and Jason and Donald are absolutely furious and wanted to spend some time on it. Jason has some serious rules changes that he wants the ACC to implement, while Donald is angry at the fact that Wake let the situation get bad by not preparing for it. Duke road losses almost always result in fans storming the court, and there were no plans in place nor did security do its job of protecting the players and staff of the teams on the court. A full Wake recap will be coming Sunday on Episode 599, but this had to be addressed immediately. There will surely be more thoughts later about how this transpired and what measures need to be taken to ensure that teams remain safe when they’re playing a basketball game.

Duke's 3 game road trip takes them about an hour down the road to Wake Forest for what will be one of the toughest games of the season. As the Duke Basketball Roundup crew explains, Wake is a good team on the road but a truly great team at home, raining 3-pointers down on opponents. The Demon Deacons are undefeated in Winston-Salem this season and they are in desperate need of an attention-getting win... and Duke is just the opportunity they want. The DBR Podcast breaks it all down as Duke tries to stay atop the ACC standings and remain in line for a very high seed in the NCAA tournament. After the break, the podcast guys also reveal a shocking statistic about Duke's Mark Mitchell. His poor shooting reputation from early in the season is really starting to fade.

The Duke Blue Devils destroyed the Miami Hurricanes on the road Wednesday night, and Jason and Donald jump on soon after the game to recap all the fun on Episode 598! We are so thrilled with the effort the Blue Devils had that after some very good headlines, we jump right into that. The effort permeated every single facet of the game, from offense to our stellar defense, and it was fun to see. Jason and Donald go back and forth on the good, marveling at how well Duke played individually and collectively. The ball movement was there, the highlight dunks were there, the 3 ball was flying, and we were getting rebounds. After the break, we nitpick to find some things to improve from this performance, but make no mistake, Duke really closed out their Florida road trip with a performance that makes the rest of the nation take notice that the team they thought we were might be starting to announce its presence.
