We have all heard the rumors, guard Sion James from Tulane is thiiiis close to picking Duke as his next destination. On the latest episode of the Duke Basketball Roundup Jason and Donald do a deep dive on what the transfer portal has brought and what it has taken away. You will hear intel about how Jon Scheyer is building this roster and what it will take to complete it. The guys also talk about where some of our beloved former Dukies are headed and what their prospects are in those locations. Oh, and there is scheduling news that shows how excited Jon Scheyer is about the 2024-25 Blue Devils as Duke prepares to take on one of the toughest non-conference schedules in the land. And, after the break, we have something really unusual. The DBR Podcast peels back the curtain on the decision players made to leave Duke. Jason got a chance to have a brutally honest conversation with a parent of one of the players who entered the portal and Jason tells you exactly what that player heard from the program that led him to choose to continue his playing days elsewhere. It is a raw summation of how some of the kids who are leaving Duke feel about how the program treated them and could be eye opening to some fans. This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
