#854 - Rippey dynamic as Duke dazzles at Countdown

Countdown to Craziness was fantastic! We recap the great weekend as Duke Basketball’s preseason kicks off with Episode 854.The weekend was terrific, but the centerpiece was the action on Coach K Court as both the men’s and women’s team played in intrasquad scrimmages. We start out by dissecting the men’s game and who stood out, from Deron Rippey Jr. to Sebastian Wilkins. We go through everyone on the floor who played and how we think they did in their first action in front of the home fans. We also discuss the women’s game and how Kara Lawson is set for a big year with a healthy lineup of stars. Of course, we have to talk about the intros, the dunk contest, and everything else around the night of Duke Basketball. We end by congratulating August, Jessica, and the DBR Podcast Friends team for being one of the best fundraisers at the Dribble for Victory Against Cancer! Make sure you’re following us and subscribe!
