Josh, Dustin, and Raul discuss the new additions to the Duke Men's Basketball staff, Alexander Powell and KJ Conklin. They explore how Conklin's experience at both the college and NBA level will help him succeed as a Duke assistant coach. They talk about how Scheyer continues to innovate, bringing in Powell to a brand new position as Executive Director of Basketball.
Then they take a closer look at Duke's wing rotation for this upcoming season. What areas can Dame Sarr realistically improve upon in his second year? And is Sarr a lock for a starting spot? Where does Sebastian Wilkins fit into this deep Duke rotation? Can Bryson Howard have a freshman Isaiah Evans-like impact as a sparkplug off the bench?
