#622 - Farewell to Flip, Jared, and Jaylen

Duke Basketball Roundup

It is with a heavy heart, but with clear eyes, that the Duke Basketball Roundup says goodbye to Jared McCain, Kyle Filipowski, and Jaylen Blakes. Flip and Mac both declared for the NBA draft on Friday and seem fated to go somewhere around the late lottery. They stand to make millions of dollars and leave behind a legacy of inspiring play that led Duke to great heights. And Jaylen Blakes, who has performed the remarkable feat of graduating from Duke in just three years, now enters the NCAA transfer portal in search of a larger role on a different team in his final year of eligibility. We will miss all three of them oh so much and be rooting for them to succeed beyond their dreams wherever they go next.

This episode of the Roundup also includes a quick mention of some good news for Duke returnees that is due to drop on Monday morning as well as our words about the tragic passing of Dereck Lively's mother, Kathy Drysdale.
