In just over 24 hours, Coach K's final season will get going, and what a way for it to start.
With Duke's long-awaited season opener against Kentucky almost here, the Blue Zone brings you three keys to a Blue Devil victory at Madison Square Garden.
Alana Beard, Duke is partnering with the African American Sports and Entertainment Group and prominent members of the Oakland community to be the first black female group to establish a sports team in a major league.
Duke's season beings Tuesday, so what do our beats think about this upcoming year?
Two things remain the same from last year, however: the coaching staff and the style of roster construction. And the Blue Devil offense worked well in its limited time last year, so why not run it back?
The college basketball landscape really is Duke’s oyster this year and the program comes into the season confident, stocked with options, cohesive and ready to compete.
While traditionally, teams prefer to set up offense with three-out past the 3-point line and two moving under the basket, this arrangement would not best serve Duke this season. Rather, the team should have only one player moving about the paint and four-out wide, setting up what is called a four-out, one-in motion offense.
Duke seniors Jiselle Havas and Miela Goodchild and sophomore Vanessa de Jesus have proven this to be true in their Instagram blog named Duke Foodies, where their motivation is stated plainly in their bio: “It’s simple, we love food.”
We broke down every player on Duke women's basketball's 2021-22 roster.
Akinbode-James hails from Nigeria, where soccer is given way more attention than basketball, so how did she end up playing basketball at Duke?
In the months that followed that Duke team cancelling its season, the program added six former five-stars and a collective six all-conference awards. The 2021-22 Blue Devils now welcome more new faces than anyone in the ACC, yet are favored to make an appearance in the NCAA tournament.
We bring you The Chronicle's 2021-22 season preview of Duke.
With Duke men's basketball's first regular season game against Kentucky at Madison Square Garden just around the corner, the Blue Zone takes a look at some film to analyze what Blue Devil faithful can expect come Tuesday.
Duke men's basketball takes the floor for the first time this season in a primetime matchup with Kentucky Tuesday in New York. Each team has a lot to prove after disappointing seasons, so here we have an X-factor for each team that can be the spark to lead their squad to victory in the season-opening battle of the blue-bloods:
Tatum, Reddish and Curry feature in this week's look into how former Duke stars fare in the NBA.
This fast-paced transition gameplay caught Wingate off guard, but Duke’s frequent inability to finish prevented it from ever fully capitalizing.
The Blue Devils are one of the few most-talented teams in the ACC, but sixty percent of that talent is new to Durham, N.C. For 11.5 minutes on Thursday, the latter was more apparent. But for the next 14.5, the former shone through.
All the usual excitement and preseason buzz surrounds Duke’s year, but this season is going to be a special one, regardless of the outcome. The 2021-22 season will be head coach Mike Krzyzewski’s last, and he’s got a squad with the potential to send him to New Orleans for a chance at a sixth ring. The usual ACC suspects fill Duke’s schedule this year, and the Blue Devils have a few primetime nonconference matchups against college basketball’s finest.
This year’s roster has tremendous potential, and with the combination of seasoned veterans and talented freshmen, head coach Mike Krzyzewski has plenty of room to tinker around and find the winning formula.
With the season's tipoff for Duke men basketball fast approaching, the Chronicle has previewed every team on the Blue Devils' schedule.
