Just passed Milligan’s creek and let me tell you its a real shame school is out bc the water has risen due to all of the rain and it looks perfect for a baptism, creeking, or homicide. No reason you cant do all three really.

@AdamFinkelstein @Isaac__Trotter @TravisBranham_ @TheDevilsDen @Geaux247 @247Sports @CBSSportsCBB Love Graves. Would love him at Duke. He does a LOT of things well but with that stat line (good but NBA good?) I just dont know how he is a first round lock. Assuming he truly is I see him struggling as many do to stay on a roster. Not a ton of exp against high lvl competition

We did a deep dive into Allen Graves on this week’s portal show. Analytic darling is the No. 4 ranked transfer & a potential 1st round pick, despite starting just 4 games at Santa Clara? What makes him unique? Should he stay or go? Best college fit? 📺 youtu.be/WjAOwRY2bmU?si…

@srogers141 @HughStraine Lost 2 players that were of concern. Big issues last year were 3pt% and depth. Outside the 2 players you had one true center and a handful of decent role players. Key role players are returning with added depth and size. 3pt% has been addressed and returners will be improved

@josephMatherly @HughStraine I fear not

Duke Potential Rotation: Foster (Sr.) Blackwell (Sr.) Sarr (So.) Williams (Fr.) Ngongba (Jr.) Boozer (So.) Rippey (Fr.) Wilkins (RS Fr.) Howard (Fr.) Scharnowski (Jr.) Returning four of its top six scorers. Preseason No. 1?

@srogers141 @HughStraine On paper… absolutely not. Other than not having a consensus national player of the year deepest team they have fielded in a longgg time.

@HughStraine this lineup is def a step backwards

@SportsCenter @espn My name hasnt been called in the draft yet but there are PLENTY of picks left. To be honest I like my prospects for the NBA draft coming up in a few months better anyways. If any NBA execs see this feel free to DM for any inquiries.

With the 13th pick in the NFL draft, the Los Angeles Rams select QB Ty Simpson 🐏

@TheDukeNation said this before. I understand his right and inclination to do whatever he needs to do to maximize playing time, income, development prospects for the pros, etc., but also… in the same breath I hope he also understands that Duke fans now have that same inclination to..hate him

Don’t like to talk too much shit about a 19-year old but I’m really biting my tongue here. Unbelievable.

@yuldog3 I understand that you have to do whats right for you in terms of playing time and in terms of money, career building, etc. I get it… but also I hope he understands that he is now dirt to Duke fans everywhere.

NEWS: Nik Khamenia has committed to UConn. The Duke transfer joins Dan Hurley with hopes to make an immediate impact. Big get for UConn.

@dukebluesamurai @5PointPlayPodc1 @DevilsDenPod247 @CrazieCast I enjoy all the podcasts you have mentioned. The two Duke podcasts I listen to religiously are @DukeRoundup and @CrazieCast . So Id def consider adding DBR to your playlist. They are the most consistent with content and incorporate the best statistical analysis imo

What are yalls go to Duke podcasts? I rock with @5PointPlayPodc1 , @DevilsDenPod247 & @CrazieCast but I want to support even more Duke fans

@JasonDukeEvans Hoping that Kenny Payne is at the top of their list 🤞🏼

Ten candidates to replace Hubert Davis at UNC. This list makes a lot of sense. Didn’t know Jawad Williams was developing a good coaching rep in the NBA. Do not discount the impact of a massive buyout on this process. UNC does not have unlimited money. si.com/college-basket…

@JonRothstein I heard about this guy Kenny Payne who I think would be an excellent hire!

Sources: North Carolina will do an open search and plans for the first time, to actively pursue candidates outside of the Tar Heels' family. A new dawn in Chapel Hill.

@MaverickDarby @grok where can i find this not on twitter

"𝘈𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘚𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘳" A wholesome basketball movie starring JD Vance just in time for March Madness.

Duke to some poor ACC team every Big Monday

@HaterReport Good thing Chet Holgrem was there to step in and save the day he certainly was gonna be an asset if things went south

Nah man Nikola Jokic was ready to take a life. Bro eyes look crazy as f**k

@Habibi_Ameer @espn @JayBilas @RichEisenShow If he wasnt getting paid literally millions of dollars I would agree but in the NIL era you essentially are on contract so if you dont want to play thats fine but you should have to forfeit a portion of your NIL money if you can play and choose not to. Injury is different imo

Unpopular opinion: Being a 'competitor' is great, but at this level, it’s a business. If he gets a serious injury playing these extra games, none of these analysts will be there to pay his bills. Shutting it down isn't 'soft,' it's being smart about a multi-million dollar career. Can't blame anyone for protecting the bag.

"Shutting it down would be the easy way to go, and the NBA would take him No. 1. Trying to play is what's causing these speculative issues about his character. ... I don't find it fair." —@JayBilas on Darryn Peterson ✍️ (via @RichEisenShow)

@garyhgoodridge Not been confirmed but likely to be me. Will also be my debut fight

THE KING IS BACK 👑🦍 Dana White all but confirms that Conor McGregor will make his long anticipatied return to the octagon for UFC White House on June 14th 🏟️ Who do you think McGregor will face…

@JasonDukeEvans @grok in college basketball can you leave the floor (by jumping with the basketball and not having yet dribbled) and then initiate a dribble while in air?

Folks who know officiating better than I do, isn't this legal? Bidunga functionally takes a two handed dribble while he is jumping. Isn't that legal?

@wesruckerTBA This should be a bipartisan issue but unfortunately Mayor Humdinger and his cats are slowly tearing the fabric of society. I for one would like to know where he was on January 6th

I try to avoid being politically partisan on this app, but it’s time to impeach Mayor Humdinger.

@warnerbros Great trailer. I watched it and have absolutely no idea what this movie is about

DIGGER. A comedy of catastrophic proportions. Only in theaters October 2026.

@dre_dawkins My day is ruined and my dissapointment is immeasurable

@GrahamHall Golden is a good coach but hes taking the easy route by blaming multiple losses on officiating. Theres a human element to referees and calls are botched all the time. This one was not egregious as far as calls go. Take ownership and move on. Less victim mentality

Florida head coach Todd Golden criticized the consequential inbounds violation late in UF's 77-73 loss to UConn, attributing it to a premature whistle. 'I challenge everybody to time it and see what they come up with. We timed it in the locker room, and we got 4.6 and 4.7 (seconds)' STORY: 247sports.com/college/florid…

@keepitcasualwes $22 million spent on that team

I was told Mark Pope was the savior of Kentucky basketball 🤔
