    Caleb Foster returns! The Duke point guard has announced that he will return for his senior season, and we hop on very quickly on DBR Bites #163 to discuss it! Pressure? What pressure? Competition? Bring it. Foster’s announcement just a few minutes before Donald and Jason hopped on to talk about it is telling us that he’s ready to embrace all of it and help lead this team in whatever role he may have. Everyone has to be excited about Foster coming back to finish out his college career at the only school he wanted to play at, and the leadership and continuity is going to help immensely.

    #817 - Blackwell BOOM!! Seabass Stays!!
    Apr 22 2026
    The Duke Blue Devils have reeled in what may be the most significant transfer in the program's history. John Blackwell, who was widely seen as the best scoring guard in the transfer portal has committed to Jon Scheyer, locking in a crucial piece of Duke's 26-27 team. Duke Basketball Roundup co-hosts Jason Evans and Donald Wine have a complete breakdown of his game and what his presence in Durham will mean for Duke. After the break, the guys switch their attention to another key piece as Sebastian Wilkins has confirmed that he will be back in Durham after a season spent as a redshirt. The DBR Podcast is super excited to see how the team will use the unique skill set that Seabass provides. Oh, and before they go, the guys have a few words about Maliq Brown, who has added yet another award to his trophy case. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    DBR Bites #162 - Pat’s Back!
    Apr 20 2026
    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. The portal entry deadline is tomorrow, so we’ll surely be back with more news as we await the decisions of the portal players as well as several players on the Duke roster.

    DBR Bites #161 - Drew Commits, Cayden Stays, Nik Turns Husky
    Apr 19 2026
    We finally had some news, and just as we were about to record, we got some more! We discuss it all on DBR Bites #161. As we were set to record, Belmont transfer Drew Scharnowski committed to Duke out of the transfer portal, and we’re happy to have our first transfer of the offseason. Donald, Jason, and Scott Rich joining us discuss Scharnowski’s potential and what he can bring to the Blue Devils next season. We also look at the things that he will need to work on to be successful in a Duke uniform. We also discuss Cayden Boozer announcing that he will return for his sophomore season, and we could not be more excited to welcome him back! We discuss his rise and what he figures to be for Duke next season. After we say goodbye to Jason, Donald and Scott continue to discuss the news that Nik Khamenia is headed to Storrs to join the UConn Huskies. We reflect on his decision and where he likely will play while also discussing the natural anger that Nik has left Duke for UConn after how the season ended. Make sure you’re following us!

  • DBR Bites #160: No News Means…No News?

    DBR Bites #160: No News Means…No News?
    Apr 15 2026
    We haven’t heard a lot of news on the status of the Duke Men’s Basketball roster for next season…and we know everyone trying to figure out what it all means! We update everyone on what we’ve heard and speculate on the portal on DBR Bites #160. After Nik Khamenia and Darren Harris entered the transfer portal, the news cycle has gone quiet. Sure, Duke has been rumored to be considering several players from the portal, but no one on the squad has made any decisions public yet. We start by going through the roster and giving what we think is the status of those players who may have decisions to make, whether it’s to stay at Duke, enter the NBA Draft, or to transfer. Some guys are likely very torn on their decision, but we also try to reassure folks who might be getting antsy that no news means bad news for next year’s roster. We also dive into some of the players that we are reportedly considering in the transfer portal and discuss the news that Flory Bidunga has committed to Louisville just hours before he was scheduled to visit Duke. Duke will still have a great roster, but we shall have to wait and see who fills out next year’s roster as everyone makes their decisions. Make sure you’re following us!

  • DBR Bites #159 - Silent K Hits The Portal Too

    DBR Bites #159 - Silent K Hits The Portal Too
    Apr 8 2026
    Another day, another portal decision for a Dukie. Nik Khamenia has decided to check out what else college basketball has to offer. The Duke Basketball Roundup crew says this one stings a bit more than losing Darren Harris. Jason and Donald say they could see glimpses of what Nik could become during his freshman campaign and they are bummed that we won't get to watch that at Duke, but they also understand why Nik made this decision. And the podcast guys have a warning for worried Duke fans... do not judge the portal until you know both who is going out and who is coming in.After the break, the guys dive into a proposed NCAA rules change that could be a seismic shift in eligibility... and could open the door for another season from Maliq Brown.

  • DBR Bites #158 - Farewell to Darren and more roster speculation

    DBR Bites #158 - Farewell to Darren and more roster speculation
    Apr 7 2026
    On the latest edition of DBR Bites, the podcast crew dive into a flurry of topics, starting with Darren Harris announcing his intention to enter the transfer portal. Jason and Scott are sad to lose a kid who clearly gave his all and loved the program, but they also acknowledge that Darren just didn't perform in a way that indicated he had a big future for the Blue Devils. After the break, the guys dive into a flurry of other news. Michigan won the national title, and Scott has some thoughts on that; Duke has been connected to a big-time scoring wing who would be probably the most significant portal addition for the Blue Devils in the Scheyer era; and then there is the situation down the road, where UNC has added a head coach that no one expected.

    #816 - Stats Game Results Show
    Apr 5 2026
    While the end of the Duke basketball season is always a terribly sad time, it at least allowed the Duke Basketball Roundup to bring our old friend Sam Klein back on the show for the season recap via the Stats Game. Every year, the DBR Podcast team all guess at various statistical measures of success in the preseason and then, when all is said and done, we look back on it to see how foolish (and how insightful) we all were. Even though the season ended short of the promised land, the Stats Game is always a fun way to wrap up the season. And it is even more challenging now that we have added Scott Rich to the mix as one more stat picker. Jason has a 6-4 lead on Donald (Sam has only won once) in the history of the game. Listen in to find out who wins this year! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
