Duke Basketball Report

The Duke Blue Devils are ACC champions! For the first time since 2005-2006, Duke wins the ACC Tournament after claiming the outright regular season title, defeating the Louisville Cardinals 73-62. Donald and Jason recap everything on Episode 706. It was a tough win for the Blue Devils, who didn’t have a great first half but surged in the second half to take the game. The second half defense and the tenacity the team showed was incredible. Kon Knueppel was the ACC Tournament MVP, but there were several unsung heroes that helped Duke to the ACC title. After the break, we discuss some of the things that need to improve as we turn to the NCAA Tournament. We give out our Play of the Game as well as our Player of the Week as well. We end with quick predictions on what seed lines await Clemson and Louisville, whether Duke will be the #1 overall seed, and whether UNC makes the Big Dance. We’ll be back this evening to discuss all the brackets, both for the men and the women, as the Selection Shows take place today!
