  • #822 - Duke sets up Prime non-conference matchups in historic deal
    May 1 2026
    We're not done with the news! We're back very quickly to discuss more of the Duke Basketball news coming out over the past few days on Episode 822! If Episode 821 was the recruiting episode, 822 is the news episode and we start with the news that Duke has created a deal with Amazon Prime to have three showcase non-conference games air on the streaming platform in a multiyear deal. The games in 2026-27: UConn, Michigan, and Gonzaga. We discuss the historic deal and how Duke is setting itself up to once again have a terrific non-conference schedule. We also discuss Cooper Flagg holding off his former roommate Kon Knueppel to win the NBA's Rookie of the Year. It was a banner year for both, so we sing their praises. We end by throwing all the shade and scorn at the NCAA for their reported decision to imminently expand the NCAA Tournaments to 76 teams. Make sure you’re following us!

  • #821 - Boom Boom Boumtje Boumtje Blue Blue Devil Devil
    Apr 30 2026
    Jon Scheyer's recruiting is truly off the charts incredible. In his latest master stroke, the Duke coach has convinced Spanish superstar Joaquim Boumtje Boumtje to come to Duke a year earlier than expected to join the 2026-27 Blue Devils. Boom Boom, as he is known, is considered perhaps the top prospect in the 2028 NBA Draft and Duke will get to see what he brings to the table starting this fall. The DBR Podcast crew has been crushing the tape and reading all the scouting reports to give you everything you need to know about the latest big man headed to campus. After the break, Jason and Donald have more recruiting news. There is word that Duke has officially offered Kager Knueppel's younger brother, Kager. And, Duke may be filling out the practice squad with a guy who was actually a pretty good D1 player last season. Tune in to the latest edition of the Duke Basketball Roundup for all the details.

  • #820 - Rick Palmer Breaks Down John Blackwell's Game
    Apr 27 2026
    We’re back with Episode 820 where we get to know what we’re getting in new transfer John Blackwell from one of the coaches that knows him the most. We welcome his high school coach, Rick Palmer, to the show! Rick Palmer has known John since late in his freshman year of high school, and with Jason not available, Donald gets to catch up with his high school teammate about the player that will be one of the focal points for Duke next season. We get into John Blackwell’s game and discuss what kind of player Duke is getting. We get into what his best traits are on the court and what Palmer believes will make him successful in a Duke uniform. We also discuss John Blackwell the person and how grounded he is. One thing you will hear about is how great of a teammate Blackwell is (relating his leadership to a famous Duke player who played his high school ball a mile down the street), and how he embodies the fist mentality that Coach K instilled in the program. Rick Palmer only leaves us more excited about having him on the team next season! Make sure you’re following us!

    He’s back! Patrick Ngongba II has announced that he’s returning to Duke for his junior year, and we cannot be more excited on DBR Bites #162. Pat’s return will have some expectations attached to it as he seeks to be one of the best centers in the country next season. Jason and Donald are excited about the possibilities as they discuss some of what might have led to his decision to stay in school and not test the NBA Draft waters. We also give our takes on what we can see from an improved Pat next season as he becomes one of the main centerpieces on offense and defense. We also dive quickly into some of the portal possibilities remaining for Duke as John Blackwell visits campus and we discuss a couple of the other forwards that Duke is considering.
