Duke Basketball Roundup

The ACC has given us their end of season awards, and Duke cleaned up! We recap all the winners and team placements on DBR Bites #150.

The ACC awards list is led by a near sweep of the main awards by Duke: Cameron Boozer won Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year, Maliq Brown won Defensive Player of the Year and 6th Man of the Year, and Jon Scheyer won his first ACC Coach of the Year award. We go through all of the guys who made All-ACC teams and placed in the awards voting and remark at how awesome it is for so many players to get recognized for awards.

We also touch on the remarkable toughness Duke Women’s Basketball showed in repeating as ACC Tournament champions. They also had several names on the ACC awards and teams, including Kara Lawson winning ACC Coach of the Year. We’re extremely proud of how they’ve poured it on lately and fought to be deserving champions!

Despite injuries to two starters, Duke rolled over rival North Carolina in a win that seemed even more dominant than the 15 point final score indicated. The Duke Basketball Roundup breaks down all the things that worked for Duke in this game, starting with the stellar defensive disruptions of Maliq Brown and Dame Sarr that played a key role in a 24-2 second half run that had Cameron Indoor rocking. The podcast gang also marvel at the unrelenting Cameron Boozer and his stunning 26-15-5 stat line. After the break, Jason and Donald dive into the injuries that have befallen Duke lately, as they look ahead to how Duke will keep going despite the uncertain status of Caleb Foster and Patrick Ngongba.

Revenge is a dish best served... in Cameron Indoor Stadium! The latest episode of the Duke Basketball Roundup is a look ahead to the eagerly awaited rematch with UNC. Of course, the big question hanging over this game is whether Carolina's Caleb Wilson will suit up. He's been missing time with a fracture in his hand and it sounds like he is close to coming back. Jason and Donald dive into what Carolina is like with and without their star forward. They also look at how playing this game in Cameron could bring an extra boost to the Duke team.After the break, the podcast team gets into the significance of Senior Day and how it may impact the play of Maliq Brown. The guys also stroll down memory lane to one of the great "last game in Cameron" performances of all time... by none other than Justin Robinson.

Dame Sarr was incredible as Duke clinched the ACC regular season title outright. His offensive surge was a huge boost for the Blue Devils. We discuss his big night as well as the rest of what Duke did well to run away from the Wolfpack. There were a lot of great performances individually and collectively as NC State had no answer after about 9 minutes had elapsed in the game.

There were some things to clean up, so we discuss what they can do a bit better. And, how can a timeout possibly be considered for Play of the Game? Stick around and find out!

Fresh off a big win against Virginia, Duke has to turn it around very quickly to play NC State in Raleigh. We preview that game along with some other nuggets on DBR Bites #148.

Duke has had some stinkers in Raleigh against the Wolfpack, but they're hoping to buck that trend. NC State has a lot of familiar guys from other teams, but have been inconsistent this season in several areas. We take you though what they've done this year, how they look in the metrics, and what it will take to get a win at the Lenovo Center.

After the break, we have a couple of other stories to touch on. First, Nolan Smith has won a regular season conference title in his first season with Tennessee State! Could they be a potential Duke opponent if they make the NCAA Tournament? We also look at how many double digit leads Duke has held over the past couple of seasons, and we discuss the streets finally saying that Jon Scheyer might be a frontrunner for ACC and national coach of the year.
